Eat your vegetables: new voices today

Sadly, Carrie Lyle and Joannah Hill have left The Sun and Garden Variety, taking with them their good companionship in the garden, and their wonderful, bountiful, knowledge. Both are Master Gardeners. We will miss them for their friendship and their experience.
Today we at Garden Variety introduce a couple of new voices. Julie Scharper and Maryann James, colleagues at The Sun who will be blogging about vegetable gardening.
Maryann and Julie disprove a couple of common theories about gardening: It is something you do after the kids leave home, and you have to have a yard to do it.
Maryann and Julie are both young women professionals with no kids - and no yard. Both are city dwellers, but like so many today, determined to grow at least some of their own food and herbs.
We will be following Maryann and Julie on Tuesdays this summer as they blog about their vegetable gardens. Both are beginning gardeners and both face special challenges in the city.
We will be learning along with them.
Welcome, Ladies. Let's get our hands dirty!

There were lots of herbs and veggie plants at the JFX Farmer's Market this Sunday morning for very good prices.

A moment of silence for the passing of Carrie and Joannah--so sad. But welcome, Julie and Maryann (formerly of BaltAmour?)
You are right on both counts. I am very sad.--Susan

Nice to see another side of Maryann's personality. We are all multi-talented, aren't we?
