I'm daughter to Lissie, sister to Jess, wife to Brien, mom to Hannah, Lily and Eleanor. I am a stay at home mom to my girls, and my free time is dedicated to gardening (I confess I'm still a novice and look to Lissie and Jess for advice), baking and cooking, and card making. I'm doing my part to make the earth a bit greener, trying hard to avoid processed foods and HFCS, and find the "slow food" movement intriguing and inspiring. I love visits to my local farmers' market, fresh produce, reading, getting out in nature, and spending time with my family.
Jess
Catholic, homeschooler, lover of books and great wine and an amateur gardening addict.
Lissie
I'm Melissa aka "Lissie", mother of Rachael and Jessica, and grandmother to a passel of the sweetest children on the planet. I'm a semi-retired public educator and professor who works from home for a small publisher. I am a lover of all things beautiful ... flowers, the mountains, nature scenes, the innocent faces of children, and my rock and fossil collection, to name a few. I enjoy shopping at the farmers' market for fresh foods and then experimenting with new recipes. Good food and good wine delight me. I love to travel so my suitcase is always packed. Like my daughters, I take pleasure in simple things ... clothes drying on the line, tomatoes so fresh they are still hot from the sun, good books, and interesting movies. I'd like to know everything before I die.

Too funny - how did we order from the same company? If all goes well this year, do you want to try sharing some seeds next year?
We are ALL very excited about growing the gardens. Do you plan to harvest your own seeds for next year or just order new ones? I have no idea how to do that. This weekend Doug will be making me a cover for one of my garden boxes. My SIL is planting her letuuce now. She does those direct seed. Also, she says to plant them again this Fall for a new crop. We eat salad every night. I am so tired of wilting foul tasting leaves (sometimes they turn before we get to them). The thought of harvesting them out of our own garden is very exciting.
I have mine as well!!
I cant wait to start.
I'll have to post pic's of the "starters" I am starting this week! :)
I made Brad clean off a shelf in his shop (its indoors)and it will be my "shelf garden" until I can plant them in my garden! :)
