“Will you be able to plant a garden this year?”
We debated about that, but in the end decided to go ahead and plant one here, although sticking only with the basics. What can I say? I’m a “gardener”. :) So the potatoes are “in”, and I’ll plant some beans, corn, pumpkins, tomatoes, and marigolds, although not as much as I normally would. I still have quite a pantry full from last year, so we won’t starve either way, but I’m planting mostly heirloom seeds this year and am eager to see how they do.
I’m really looking forward to gardening “down home” as we’ll be moving from a zone 5 to a zone 6 and I’ll have a much longer and warmer growing season. I’ll also have to relearn how to garden in those conditions, but look forward to a great improvement in both yields and varities. :)

Good, you are all set and will soon know where the fields are that sell produce in your new area.
It is true, some things, like gardening need to be done, I always needed to play in the dirt.
