I love, love, love this! What a great way to condense fabulous resources. We are going to work on our garden this weekend and I'm very interested in starting a worm compost. Looking forward to getting dirty! ;-)

I started a garden last year and was very intimidated - I read the book All New Square Foot Gardening and found it super easy to get up and growing! Not everything grew, but we had a great harvest and learned a lot. |

We have gardened for years but never with an eye to GMOs until recently. I am looking forward to starting off this season using more heirloom seeds and natural pesticides than we used in the past.

That is great! It can be overwhelming trying to find GMO free companies that Monsanto hasn't touched yet. Botanical Interests is also a good brand, non-GMO and you can usually find them at garden nurseries. I've even seen Botanical Interest seeds at Whole Foods. |

Not everything grew, but we had a great harvest and learned a lot. Wonderful! I think I will create a thread where we can all share our challenges and tips for overcoming pests and such. That will be very helpful as the growing season begins! |

Didn't have time to check it out, but hope to next week. |

Hi!
After a couple of years on the waiting list, we finally got an allotment last weekend. 440m², had been conventionally cultivated and there are a few mature fruit trees, but it's not been touched for 2 - 3 years and is completely overgrown with weeds. I found some information about the Back to Eden project recently, so we're intending to start with one biggish vegetable bed and mulch it as soon as we've cleared most of the weeds, brambles etc. I'm sure I'll be back on here looking for advice...
