I met you last Saturday–and am enjoying your blog. I live in Littleton and would like to get involved in any urban garden groups in my area. Are you aware of any? I also have a very small garden.
Thanks for your question. Since I live on the opposite side of town, the resources I know are pretty far from you. But I know of someone who should be able to help: Jodi Torpey, a garden writer who writes a blog at westerngardeners.com. I just read a long article of hers in the Post last week. Good luck!
i look forward to picking your brain re: urban gardening.
think: 3′ x 3′ plot in my tiny nyc backyard.
SO glad to help and even MORE glad to be able to do so in person! I love it when far-away friends come to visit — we can’t wait to see you!
