You live in the Bay area, correct? Do you know what hardiness zone you are in? If not, google Hardiness Zone to find out, then go from there. This will help you decipher the back of the seed packages. Do you have a local Master Gardener program that hangs out at farmer's markets, etc.? If so, they can really help you. For a child-friendly garden with directions, see Roots, Shoots, Buckets and Boots for some great ideas.Gift of Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13843779880769352257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3851827740361032747.post-81388220493573825082009-02-19T16:39:00.000-05:002009-02-19T16:39:00.000-05:00I am so green in everyway but growing my own food....I am so green in everyway but growing my own food. It is so silly not to grow my own. I live in a warm climate. I tried last year to start small. My Father was visiting, so we tackled making a garden. We planted tomato plants and carrots. Eventually the bugs took my tomato plants over. I planted my carrots too close together so they were to tiny to eat. I was so discouraged! Your post gave me the inspiration to try again this Spring.

Never ordered seeds online before either but we might need to give it a try this year!ameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17523535460114457419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3851827740361032747.post-29938394402291092652009-02-17T16:30:00.000-05:002009-02-17T16:30:00.000-05:00Gift of Green!!!
