hehehe......OKay, Karen I guess I am a backyard gardener!
I struggle with those words because I sell at 3 farmer's market, supply one CSA, and a coop. That's alot of production from a backyard garden! I wish my community around me was interested in my garden considering it's not fenced with 64 raised-beds, with 2 greenhouses. And one of my greenhouses have a HID lighting system that has awaken the neighborhood every morning at 6 a.m for the last eight years. Noooo, interest! :-( So, I've adopted several community gardens that I donate heirloom tomatoes, eggplant, and peppers too. Join Us!
