About Me:: I am a "Master Gardener" but that official title aside, to be honest I'd have to say I'm an "intermediate" gardener, or maybe PDG... I grow great weeds! We have a farm east of Odessa and do everything organically (but not certified). We grow veggies, blueberries, and cut flowers, in small quantities now but hoping to increase this year. We share the whole place with a flock of chickens that only die of old age if they're lucky, and become coyote dinner if they're not. I'm hoping that natural selection will mean that one day my flock will be super-savvy at staying alive! Meanwhile, we enjoy their fantastic eggs. Every time, Shelly, that you say, "Did I mention that I hate winter?" I feel a deep and abiding bond with you! You are not alone!
