Hi! We live in northern Greenville County, SC, in a rural area. We are trying a small vegetable garden this year with squash, cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper, carrots, and a couple of sunflowers. We have 4 blueberry bushes that we planted about 5 years ago, and we have a bumper crop this summer! I am an artist, an after school director, and I love to bake. I love nature, animals, we have cats and we feed the birds, and apparently opossums too! I love the Hickory Holler blog which I get through my school email. I feel calmed and peaceful when I read it. I also indulge in genealogy. My father loved to garden, his mother was a gardener, and belonged to a Japanese Garden Society in the 50's. Her grandfather was a nurseryman in the Ozarks of Arkansas. He had an apple orchard. My mother's great grandfather was also a nurseryman. My husband is a nurseryman and landscaper.

I an touched that you feel tranquility in Hickery Holler. I strive for that tranquility in all aspects of my life. It seems like we are all bombarded with such drama and negativity in the world anymore. I went through a time when I also did genealogy after a couple decades I somewhat burned out. Once you hit Europe it gets more difficult. Wow you definitely have a horticultural background through your family. Mine is somewhat the same way.
