Jorja,
You're describing a part of Utah I've never seen. I've been to SLC and passed through St. George area (pretty).
You'll find lots of help and inspiration cruisin' all over ATP. Do use that search function often.
... and talk to Trish often. She's very helpful and talented. Great with fiber arts, growing food, canning, well.... just about everything!
I'm kinda stuck in the house with a little quilting project(s) and not gardening too much. Just starting retirement from Corp. Amer. and doing what I like at the moment.
