About Me:
I enjoy growing veggies and would like to learn more about fruit trees. We currently have a 10' x 20' raised bed that I have been growing veggies in for two years, and are slowly working on creating a new garden for squash and other sprawlers. I enjoy fostering animals and currently have 2 dogs and 4 cats, although that varies depending on who finds me - kittens just seem to leap out everywhere :). My husband enjoys tinkering with things and the outdoors - he has really helped with building the beds and added a couple of rain barrels to help with water. We both enjoy the classes at the Guild and hope to have chickens soon.

The chickens are mostly for eggs, although we'll put them in the pot if they're not keeping busy. Too many roosters and they'll get the same fate. I need enough roosters for a new crop of chicks next year though.
When they start laying I'll have enough to sell at the farmer's market in Tucson, or Green Valley. People around here definitely appreciate organic foods.
Great to hear that you sponsor kids! It's a great way to raise your kids' awareness of the bigger world out there.
You might try the Tolmachoff farm on 75th ave South of Bethany home Road for some chicken poop too. Talk to Bill and tell him Gary's friend Missy sent you..
