Thank you Doll. We've had summer here which isn't surprising for NC, but are getting spring back this weekend. All of a sudden swamped with Master Gardener program and am up at 4 am worrying about all the things I have to do now! Working…

Glad its warming up where you are, Rainbow. The weather here is ideal. We're starting to plant, and getting ready for my daughter's wedding which will be in our backyard. I don't know why the site hasn't been more active.

Moby Catfish

Art therapy and gardening

Terri suggested I start a blog on Art Therapy so people could be more informed. I currently finished my MA, AT with specialization in counseling.

Art therapy is a therapy that utilizes art as a form of language. This may be done in conjunction with talking or it may be done without. With this conceptualization, art can quickly facilitate a fuller understanding of self and situations. I personally believe it does so due to the nature of traditional language.

Trading Plants

WELCOME to Trading Plants! The purpose of this group is to provide a forum for PLANT & SEED TRADES AND EXCHANGES -- (for fruits & vegetables, annuals and perennials, rhizomes, bulbs, tubers, corms) -- NOT FOR SELLING. When requesting any offered plants, seeds or cuttings, please POST PUBLICLY so everyone knows what is going on. Once an agreement is made, and it comes to exchanging addresses, please do that in private. Post what you have or want. The asker must email the sender for an address to mail a SASE envelope. The sender encloses the requested seeds and returns to Asker. You MUST notify the sender of receipt of pkg. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL ELIMINATE YOU FROM THIS DISCUSSION. DO NOT LIST YOUR ADDRESS HERE. Now is the time to start your seedlings in-doors, and for those of us in CA, we can plant year round. Let's get busy with our trades and swaps.
