Yup, I’ve gotten married and the Gardening Guy and I are moving out to Western Virginia to start a real market garden on twelve acres of forest land.

No buildings of any kind on the property so the first thing to do will be to build a cabin (we’ll rent a tiny and I mean TINY apartment for six months) and start clearing trees and hauling manure to make compost and garden beds.

There’s a good Farmer’s Market about twenty minutes away, very busy and if the farm legislation for on-farm sales goes through I’ll be VERY busy.

Of course I’ll be teaching classes again, and publishing a regular newsletter as well.

I’m so excited, having a real piece of land to work with has been a dream for a LONG time and I really look forward to Eco-farming it and raising a family etc.
