Regards for helping out, good information.
ReplyDeleteYou're quite welcome. We love to help people connect and have more fun gardening. :)
DeleteI am really impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your blog.
ReplyDeleteIs this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself?
Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it's rare to see a nice blog like this one today.
Thanks so much for your kind words. This is an all volunteer project made up of people who give of their time and effort to support our community, especially in regards to gardening. We have several other writers in addition to myself, some of whom are professionals, retired professors, and/or avid and educated gardeners. We're supported by, and we support Benton County Master Gardeners, the Corvallis Evening Garden Club, the Corvallis Sustainability Coalition, the City of Corvallis Civic Beauty and Urban Forestry Group, and Corvallis Parks and Recreation.
ReplyDeleteHi there! This article could not be written much better!
ReplyDeleteGoing through this post reminds me of my previous roommate!
He always kept talking about this. I most certainly will send this post
to him. Fairly certain he's going to have a good read.
Thanks for sharing!
