Carla Emery to the rescue

Potatoes in the parking area

For me the woman known as Earthchild Marie is something of a mystery.  Her 8 seasonal garden plans are shown in every edition of the iconic Encyclopedia of Country Living but no one seems to know who she is.  All other people mentioned in the tome seem to be woven in Ms. Emery's personal history.

But I am happy with the garden plans.  I am using them as a guide to jump start my garden year.

Wish me luck.
