Hey folks, I'm Dawn! Been lurking for a bit as I get used to everything, but I'm finally- sort of- ready to say hi! I'm VERY soon moving to Tennessee with my mother (literally tomorrow), and while I don't have a container garden right now, I do want to have a dedicated one once we settle in Tennessee! We'll likely be in Zone 8a/8b. My plan is to have a yearly raised bed garden consisting of all my favorite things I love to eat: Melon, berries (many kinds!), corn, cucumbers (specifically for homemade pickles!), carrots, lettuce, bell peppers, broccoli... Yea, my ultimate goal is a giant garden I can routinely harvest from for our own food~ I also plan to have it going ALMOST year round, aside from December-February maybe, considering those are the only months it really gets COLD cold down there~ I'll get there eventually!
