What's Happening
Instant Info
Hello, I'm Tessa. Feel free to look around and comment on anything you like. And for those of you needing some instant input- here are the facts.
My Climate- for the curious.
Location: Redmond, OR- High desert
USDA Zone: 5/6a (in most of my yard)
Sunset Zone: 1 or 2
Climate: Sun, sun, snow (with sun!) Cold winters, nice summers
Last frost: It can dip below freezing any time of year, but I've set my last frost to June 1st for my yard
Garden Size: Just over 1/3 acre and an adjacent lot that is 1/4 acre that we can use. I'm keeping it small for now.
Gardener: garden coach- aspiring microfarmer!
Started blogging: May 2008
Note: I moved from a temperate climate, zone 8 to a much ccccolder climate, zone 5/6a- things have been interesting around here and I continue to test varieties to see what works and what people like. I have put up a small high tunnel and any extras I have go to local produce stores- I have hopes of building a much larger high tunnel to supply the food banks in my area. I'm offering my services this year (2013) as a garden coach- Let me help you do what I do!
Happy gardening,
Tessa (aka dirtdigger)
