About aimee
I'm a chef and especially like to grow herbs. I use them at home and supply my restaurant as well. We don't have alot of space but we grow a few vegetables too - always tomatoes, green beans, and various chilies, and whatever other things catch our attention in the spring. This year the garden is bigger than usual. We got our yard fenced in, and it created so many opportunities for flower beds! I put in a fern garden in a shady corner and more herbs than ever, and we're trying some new varieties of flowering plants we haven't had before. I'm really enjoying it.
