I just got a message about this event and figured I'd better jump in and introduce myself, as I'm thinking this might just be a very fun thing to do.

I'm Barbara (CoronaBarb on forums at *other* places) and I live in Corona. (duh) I am a tomatophile. I used to frequent the forums at ****** *** until about February, when I decided to join DG. About the same time, an acquaintance started *********** where most of the people I talk to hang out. I've spent what time I have online over there, so I never got the chance to come here and meet all of you. (did any of that make sense, LOL?)

I grow lots of different varieties of heirloom tomatoes, with a few hybrids mixed. I also grow some peppers, lettuce, and herbs, along with melons when I can. On my acre, I have two Valencia orange trees, two grapefruit, one lemon, one lime, and one walnut tree. I hope to add more citrus, like blood and mandarin oranges.

I will have to go to the links and check out more info on this RU. I don't know if I have anything I can bring to trade but I love to bake great desserts. I also am not familiar with the setup at DG so I need to take time (it will have to be next week) to find my way around. (I don't know where this thread is located...I'm responding to the email I recvd...thanks whoever sent it)

Glad to meet all of you gardeners. (picture is Mocha Brownie Cheesecake)
