I'd like to say Hello also. I too came over here from BYC (known as Jayare's Chicks over there).
I just retired from the military 7 months ago and moved down here to Alabama from Alaska and this year will be my first garden in about 17 years.

I've noticed it has gotten expensive in the stores too. My wife likes to boil some in with the potatoes when she makes mashed potatoes. She also puts 1 or 2 sweet potatoes in with all that also. At Thanksgiving time when she made it for our first family gathering in about 17 years my nephews...
I'm also planting some potatoes in the garden. I planted 2 blueberry plants, 2 ruhbarb plants, 6 blackberry plants, and 6 raspberry plants last week as well. I also planted 2 butterfly bushes too. They are supposed to attract butterfly's and humming birds.
I put up a couple of birdhouse gourds...
Hello Mike,
I'm up here in Florence. I just retired from the military 7 months ago and moved down here from Alaska and I haven't had a garden in about 17 years.
When does everyone down here plant the garden? So Far I have my onions planted (about 2 weeks now and they are up about an inch now)...
