    Hello,
    I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Will and I live in Raleigh N.C. I currently work for a local, organic nursery specializing in herbs and vegetables. I work the retail aspect and manage all plant sales at the Farmer's Market in Raleigh. I have been gardening off and on since I was 13. I am hoping to gain valuable insight and increase my gardening knowledge for future endeavors. if you have any questions, feel free to let me know.

    :setc_034:A warm welcome Will, from Colima, Mexico. You must already know a lot of things about gardening, unless you are only 14 now. Sounds like you have a fun job. You will want to take a look at the forums to zero in on your areas of interest. Jump right in, or start a new thread.

    Hi Will and a hearty welcome to GardenStew :hi: Be sure to check out our starter pack to learn extra about the site.
    How did you first get into gardening at the age of 13? It's obvious you have a real love for it :)

    Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'm 22, no longer 13:). I grew up on a farm in a rural area so I always had a little bit of land to experiment and grow many things.

    Hello Will, and welcome to the forum! We are doing what you did at 13, but about 50 years later. We purchased a small farm here in central Texas and are growing many, many things, and experimenting. Fun, isn't it? Looking forward to your posts.
