I live in rural Northeast Louisiana, NewYorkRita. I own some land but my house and garden is on a separate acre. The raised beds are the only open spot. The rest is in yard.
Our weather Robynanne is usually mild during the winter. We do occasionly get some ice storms during the winter months. Our weather is so humid you nearly freeze at forty degrees. The summers are usually hot with temps hitting over a 100 through July and August. I love the heat but my buddy pirl in New York burns out at about 75. I guess it is what you get use to.
