By Barbara

Country living is the best! Being a true spirit of the earth, my garden is all about vegetables and fruit trees and herbs and chickens roaming free. I was keen to really start gardening when we moved to Philadelphia in 2005, but not your typical suburban-type garden – sterile and bug-free! I wanted an edible garden.

Hi my friend!! Yes – everything is looking healthy and it tastes great too! Will save some beetroot for you 🙂 – hope you can come visit one day soon!!

Your winter garden always looks so fresh and wonderful — sort of like things look here in early June. Your photos cool me off! 🙂
