Put me on the list! Suburban gardener that hasn’t gardened in 20 plus years. Nearing retirement and just had my yard redone with new garden areas (It helps that my neighbor just cut down some very large trees on my south side).
My goal for this year is beans, snowpeas (just planted), tomatoes, and some exotic vegetables my kids got me for Christmas.

Will do. I am sure that you will have some recollection of various aspects of gardening. I just started as a newbie in 2010 with lots of help from people on this thread and the internet.
Most important to inspiring me was the Sq. Foot Gardening book my daughter gave me. That first year my beds were made entirely of Mel’s mix. It is almost impossible to overwater!
Prior to that I killed everything I tried to grow. I now suspect that it was too much kindness/watering etc.
Anyway, every year I forget some stuff, and have to refresh my memory, but every year, I remember a little more.
So welcome to the thread.
Do you know the variety ? Mamouth Melting Sugar Snap : snowpeas planted them , and then couldn't keep the kids out of the garden !
They ate them right out of the garden, bush type , needs no washing !!
Can make second planting in the fall .
Keep picking and they will continue to bear pods until summer , also excellent in stir fry !
Kids are now 28 -31 yrs old , and still remember hawking snow peas in the garden . LOL !!
