Gertrude, I couldn’t agree more.
I might add, that gardeners are also wonderful teachers.
I asked a group of passionate & experienced gardeners to do just that by sharing their best garden advice or tip with you.
They agreed! Of course they did…gardeners are sharers.
Get ready to bookmark, take notes or better yet, grab your shovel & put these words of garden wisdom to work!
