New for 2009! Pride and Glory Garden Project!
Unemployed? If you come to my farm, I will give you seeds and starter plants to grow vegetables. If you are a beginning gardener, what you need is an old gardener, like me, to get you started so you can become an excellent gardener. If you already know how to
grow, you still need me for the best varieties to grow in this area! Looking forward to seeing you soon!

On February 26, 2009 Governor Pawlenty presented
the Community Spirit Award to me at the Waconia Chamber of Commerce luncheon. What an honor! Thank you to the Waconia Chamber! |
