dirtdobber's Profile

I am a registered nurse, mother of 4 grown boys,grandmother to 7 beautiful grandchildren,and wife to one great husband. 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. This is going to be fun!
