About dirtdobber
I am a 55 yr old registered nurse, mother of 4 grown boys,grandmother to 3 beautiful grandchildren,and wife to one great huband. We have just bought a home on 3 acres. I can't wait to get started gardening. I have always loved to garden, but never had the space like I do now. I am in the process of trying to transplant things from my previous home to my new garden. I also have my vegetable garden ready to be planted. I am also transplanting some things from my mom's garden before we sell her house. She is the one that passed along her love of gardening to me.
