Any ideas for gardens in New York or Eastern Canada?
Hi fellow gardeners
You know how it is with us green folks, always on the lookout for a gorgeous garden to visit on our holidays...
Well, I am heading off to New York for a couple of days then to eastern Canada - Halifax, Novia Scotia, Quebec, Montreal and Toronto.
Has anyone been there and experienced a wonderful garden that would be good for me to look at?
I am really interested in community gardens too and believe there are a number in New York City but am not sure of the best ones to see.

- The yakon have been very popular and I have just a couple left for sale now.
I dug mine in recently, bedding them down with a loose friable soil and old manure and compost. There is a nice thick layer of cane trash over the top to protect the soil from erosion and drying. I am looking forward to a big crop in Autumn next year.

- Hi Linda, I have just sent you an email. I wonder if you are around today, my husband is in your area and if possible I would like him to pick up some Yacon.

Florence said… - sounds like the tubers have diversed usages :) ~ Guess learning how to cook is the next natural progression after veggie gardening ~ I hope I will get to that stage soon, ie having enough harvests that I have to think of ways to consume them :)
