About This Journal

+/-AboutTheJournal

"Recording events of the season, connecting with community, with a passion for plants" is the original tagline. It still aims to be part of the garden blog community, but instead of centered on only my own garden this blog has changed for the better with the addition of Joanne's experiences in her Southern farm, and her reservoir of garden wisdom. We hope you like the result.

As Michael Pollan says:"Any writer who has a garden will sooner or later write about it." -that's about as good an explanation for it as any.
