I tend to read veggie blogs, but, I am really loving the way you garden visually, so I will be incorporating some things I am seeing on yours into mine. Eg. I who've two birdhouses to put up in spring for the first time. I never thought of clustering them as you did. Will the birds use them that close together? I'm really enjoying your blog Pam.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03394245146898073227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2608010804192268779.post-31021828904249965542012-01-25T08:07:10.633-05:002012-01-25T08:07:10.633-05:00Interesting book to be sure.

I pot all my plants for the nursery using a potting bench in my garage. It is quite scenic because it used to be the old stables. However, I would love my own separate space.Carolyn @ Carolyn's Shade Gardenshttp://carolynsshadegardens.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2608010804192268779.post-63325664854754377142012-01-22T11:39:47.375-05:002012-01-22T11:39:47.375-05:00How wonderful, don't you love those books that...How wonderful, don't you love those books that you can go to over and over again, even if not for information, just to remind ourselves of why we garden!

I have for years given consideration to a greenhouse, but knew that that wasn't exactly what I needed. But, looking at your shed, this is it! A small place for seeds, but also a place for potting up plants, and some storage. I am also glad you mentioned Building Great Sheds, as I have just added building a shed to my project list!
