I have never had a "green thumb".  Actually one could say I have a "black thumb". My friend had given me a plant that she said, COULD NOT be killed. Guess what?  I killed it.  

Oh but I longed for wonderful fruits and vegetables in my own backyard.  I was so envious of others and their gardens.  On snowy day last winter as I suffered through a bout of cabin fever, I researched the process of installing my own garden.  I knew it wouldn't work.  Who was I kidding.  Except on this day I came across this wonderful company, A Backyard Farm.  

The concept was amazing.  Someone would actually install the garden and help me through the summer.  I called immediately and could not wait to talk to the people behind such a wonderful company.  At last I connected with Joan.  I was so excited to meet her. When she came out to install the garden (that did indeed produce a wonderful bounty) I knew I had to introduce her to everyone else.
