New and excited�but scared!

12 years ago

I'm a veteran organic vegetable gardener of almost 40 years. We're leaving our sunny home for a far better place...on the Lake of the Ozarks! SO happy.

But I will have to garden in containers. Any tips or links on up-to-date materials, supplies, seed and plants that provide the best yields? I'm overwhelmed! And can't even figure out where to start. So much for experience, eh? :D
