About Me
- Nickie
- Porter County, NW Indiana, United States
- Trapped in Cornfields.... This is my story, my life, in Indiana. I love seeds. Seeds are like the mystery of the universe all packaged up in a handy little carrying case. :) Forget those people who tell you it's better not to try to grow a seed. That it won't amount to anything worthwhile. To those folks I say pooey! Every seed has potential and most of all hope which is a good enough reason for me. I garden in a swell, surrounded by farms, swamp, and a stone's throw from Indiana dunes. This is zone 5-6. We get lots of snow in the winter, and lots of rain in the summer.
