I’m reading books, browsing websites, and talking to friends who are gardening or trying to get started.  I just made my kitchen compost container (link to instructions soon) and I ordered my outdoor compost tumbler.

I’ve been following Windcrest Farms for a while now and even made some purchases from them at the Matthews Farmers Market.  Today I saw two classes they are offering this year.
