Our emphasis will be on Pacific Northwest gardening. Our maritime climate in the western foothills and lowlands presents a unique kind of challenge to home gardeners. The Pacific Ocean, and the Puget Sound while moderating our weather, combinations with our surrounding mountains to cause our weather to change quickly.
But, then because of our latitude, we can receive up to eighteen hours of daylight and sunlight during the summer months. Gardens, field crops, and fruit and nut orchards generally grow really well during our summers. However, even then sometimes we get too much rain, or that pesky late or early frost or freeze.
However, the drier and colder eastern interior and the higher mountain valley areas throughout the region present quite a different challenge to the home gardener.
The gardening techniques and recommended gardening related books and magazines, information and links, can also be applied to many other parts of the earth with similiar growing conditions as ours.
Here we will try to answer your gardening questions, post gardening web links, suggest books to read, and post articles of interest. We will display some advertisements of interest to gardeners.
