Hey there!
I’m Eve, nice to meet you.
So, let me tell you a bit about my gardening journey. It’s been quite the adventure, I must say. Picture this: I’ve been knee-deep in gardening for over 40 years now. Yeah, you heard that right, four decades of tending to plants, pulling weeds, and getting my hands dirty in the soil. It all started back when I was just a sprout myself, growing up on our family farm.
Back then, gardening wasn’t just a hobby; it was a way of life. From dawn till dusk, it was all about planting seeds, hoeing rows, and making sure everything thrived. And let me tell you, when harvest time rolled around, it was like a flurry of activity. We’d be busy canning crops for our big ol’ family to enjoy during the winter months. You name it, we canned it!
As I got older, I became a bit of a pro at processing foods for canning. There’s something truly satisfying about cracking open a jar of homemade goodness in the dead of winter, don’t you think? Now, I’ve even mastered the art of using a pressure cooker canner. Yep, me, afraid of breaking jars or causing a mini-explosion in the kitchen. But hey, so far, so good. Not a single mishap yet!
And let me tell you about our garden. It’s like the pride and joy of the neighborhood. Our veggies? Oh, they’re the talk of the town! Our neighbor, bless his heart, he’s got his own garden too, but he’s always marveling at the size of our potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers—you name it. It’s like our garden’s got some kind of secret sauce or something.
But you know what? We’re not ones to hoard all the goodness to ourselves. Nope, we’ve got this little community table where we plop down all the excess veggies for our neighbors to enjoy. Sharing is caring, right?
So, that’s why I decided to start this website—to share all my tips, tricks, and recommendations for growing an awesome veggie garden of your own. I’m here to spread the green-thumb love and help you grow the garden of your dreams.
Thanks for stopping by, friend!
Cheers,
Eve
