Subject: RE: BS: 2008 Garden Thread
The wind is howling, snow is flying and gardening days are a few weeks away. We have a nice collection of seed catalogs that by this point in time are dog-eared and have things circled with stars beside them. We like to add something new each year and I think 2008 will be The Year of The Sweet Potato in the Festre Family. :)

We will be adding a few more fruit trees, new grapes to the vineyard and more blueberry bushes. I've been adding a forsythia bush each year on my birthday but I think I am going to pick something different this year...Hmmmmm....know any easy care flowering bushes?

Not only is it garden planning time in my neck of the woods but it's also time to start thinking about baby chicks...what kind? How many? We are adding another 80 birds to our flock as I have far more requests for fresh eggs than I have eggs available....but that's for another thread. :)

Anyone do container gardening?
