New to the board
« on: February 20, 2009, 16:00:41 »
Hi All,
 met some of you the other night in chat but Im new to the board and ...Hi  ;D
I live in North East Scotland with my hubby and mini zoo. I dont have an allotment and I only started really loving gardening a couple of years ago. I like gardening for butterflies and bees and this season is my first for veggies. Ive grown up with keen veg & flower gardeners but as a child avoided getting roped into helping as much as possible  :D
I look forward to looking around and picking your brains.
Layla

Welcome Pixie. Your growing season is possibly a tad shorter than some on here, but that's no reason not to grow some goodies.
 Looking forward to some pics from you.

Ah Yes! Plus I have a shaded area too so will be limited to what I can grow. Gonna try a bit of everything this year in small numbers and pick the best as it were for the future

Hello Layla/pixie-a warm welcome to you; I'm fairly new to the site myself and do find it informative and supportive.  Have a good growing season ahead...from your (kind of) near  ;) neighbour in Northumberland, near the border.
