Greengirl is Back!

March 24th, 2006 by Kathy Purdy · 1 Comment 

Greengirl, the newbie gardener writing for a Minnesota newspaper, has started her 2006 gardening season. Actually, she can’t be labeled a “noob” anymore if this is her second season. She gets an awful lot of comments on some of her entries, and they are almost as much fun to read as her entries.
