Hey there, friends! Hello from Bisbee, Arizona! My name is Faeryn. (It's of Pagan origins, means 'of the faeries'...)
I was born and raised in the Great and Powerful Pacific Northwest. So the 1,638.1 mile move was a big change in some major ways. I got a sunburn in January for starters, I was also stung by a scorpion my first week here. Ahhh, adjustments.
My biggest curiosity has been about gardening. In Washington, we have to put our gardens in the absolute sunniest spots, to soak up every ray! I'm of the understanding that in Arizona, the sunniest space in the yard will burn your plants, for the most part. So I'm readjusting in some major ways. Anyone with any advice for a desert newbie would be welcome and appreciated.
I look forward to networking with other greenthumbs out here.
Love & Respect,
Faeryn The Fox
p.s. We just bought this great new house in Bisbee, with a great new yard and a built-in gray water irrigation system! Whoo hoo! However, I'm looking anxiously at planning my new garden, so anyone with companion-planting or permaculture on the brain that wants to help a newbie out... Please!!!
