Greetings fellow gardeners! I happened upon this site due to a homework assignment. For my English II class I was asked to join an online community and then write a recommendation report about it. Since I enjoy gardening, I thought I would try out this site. My garden is part of a large community garden called Eagle Heights Community Garden on land owned by the University of Wisconsin. My family has had the same plot for four years now. I had never gardened before and have learned so much, but still have so much to learn. GardenStew seems like a friendly place to get useful advice and share my gardening experiences with others who have a similar interest in gardening. As for my homework assignment...hopefully I can represent this site well.

Welcome from Texas.I'm wannabe's sister so I used to live in Wisconsin, also. I have a son, daughter-in-law and two grandsons in Oshkosh. Son and daughter-in-law both graduated from UW-Madison. Did their grad work there, too. I did more gardening in younger days but I'm sure you will find a lot to write about if you visit often. dooley

Grow, sending a big welcome from a fellow Wis. Stewer. I am not to far outside of Green Bay. Sounds like a great idea with the community garden. You should find a lot of great info here. Like Jerry said; there are friendly folks from all over the world. I hope you can post your article for all of us to enjoy.
Thank you for all the welcomes. One thing that I know will go in my report is how friendly this place is. Looking forward to future interactions.
Hi grow, welcome to GardenStew from north Texas. Hope you hand around even after your assignment has been completed. And we would love to see photos of the community garden.
