About
We are learning how to garden in the Pacific Northwest. We grew up gardening in the East, spent many years forgetting how to garden, then re-learned on the roofs and windowsills of tiny apartments in Brooklyn:
Some tomatoes grow in Brooklyn
We now have lots of space outside a sweet house in Seattle, and are attempting a few raised beds and many many more plants! You can follow our adventures with Mother Earth… and send us your advice anytime.

Viv, The garden bed looks really healthy because it filled with good dark soil. don’t mind you neighbor, I think you are right, 100 ft from middle of the road to the curb belongs to the city. Grandma & I are proud of you.

nice aerated soils. neway. ur life appears to skool amazing. maybe start a halfway homes that teach farming and outdoor survival courses. Syke can do that wile ur in china. I will help skye out forging a new program working with people there. (saw a frontline: mentalliy ill) got me to thinking about these peple who have no where to go. makes me sad. and makes me wanna do something. I think if I go over yonder (while Viv is away) I could come up with some genius plan to tame the social deviantsss..then viv will return and I can continue coporate job hunt.
