Hi from oregon

Greetings. I'm new here. I live on 2 acres in the gorge, zone 5b. I try to keep things native but I've got some lovely non-native plants as well. I'm back to vegetable gardening this year with the addition of a couple of raised beds. I'll have to start taking pictures of my garden again. I was a very long time an app that hasn't been able to continue on in the latest wave of technology and it disappeared, so I'm really happy to find you here.

 

Welcome from the Northwest coast of Oregon. Zone 8b..
I think your garden pictures are more than welcome here. Tell us what you did in your garden in an established daily link .

 

It will take me a bit to get acclimated here. What exactly do you mean by "established daily link"? TY

 

Welcome to the forum Columbiariver !! . We love that you joined the forum !! The more the merrier !!

You can start a dedicated thread all about your garden. That's what I did this year with "Anniekay's veg and fruit" thread. This way you can update your thread with all the new things you are planting and we can see your garden's progress !! Have fun. I'm sure you will enjoy it here.

Lovely to meet you Columbiariver. Big welcome from Kent UK

 

Thank you @Tetters. It's very nice to be here.

 

@Pacnorwest i have no doubt been through your town as the oregon coast is one of my best places to go! As a tiny tot my folks built a cabin on neakahnie mountain in manzanita. Oh the beauty....

 

Welcome to Garden Stew!

I'm a bit northwest of you, and warmer, in SW Washington State. I grew up in Zone 5b but in the midwest. I still grow a lot of the same crops and trees as I did there.

 

@Daniel W I'm across the river from Washougal. Just a bit further east, near Multnomah falls.

 

Welcome to The Stew @Columbiariver

 

@Columbiariver, Hoping the Rowena fire is no where close to you.
