Hello from Zanesville

Hi All, it's me--the columnist from Zanesville who made the mistake of leaving Dave's Garden off a list of websites!

But it turned out to be a good thing! I've had a chance to explore the site further (I'd visited many times in the past to research a plant or tree), and it's rather phenomenal, to say the least. I manage the OSU Master Gardener Yahoo Group and have posted the information and link to this place for all my Zanesville cohorts!

I look forward to participating in the forums and getting to know you all better.

Have a great weekend, wherever you are. :o)

Hi Tonileland,

I was wondering why no replies but I guess you just posted :) I missed the article but apparently others did not, (laughing) Welcome to Daves!! Please come and check out the ORVG (Ohio River Vally Group) Forum, It's listed under Regional. It's great that you are joining now. This way you can get to know everyone before the Spring RU.

BOUQUETS and a big welcome to Dave's, where you'll enjoy meeting, learning and growing in the garden!! ;0)

Welcome to Dave's Garden, Toni!

Welcome Toni!!!

Welcome to Dave's garden Toni!! You will find this place is addictive. I spend more time here than anyplace else on the web, it is also a good excuse to avoid such mundane things like house work---lol
Please look around and join in on the fun!!

Welcome, welcome. Guess we sort of blindsided you, didn't we. This is a very loyal and dedicated group. Since I am in Dallas, Texas guess I will have to bookmark your paper so I can read your future articles. Too bad there is no way for your editor to know how much your readership has just grown. hahahah
