[OKC] interest in permaculture...

[Kelley C Smith]

Matthew,

I am interested! I'm a backyard gardener. My garden isn't that big, but 
I have grown many different vegetables and herbs. I'm trying potatoes in 
a small tower this year.

I'd like to know more about your herb spiral.

I want some rain barrels, but don't have any yet. I do have a worm bin 
and use worm castings for my garden, and I have compost bins. I also 
make use of a makeshift hoop house when appropriate.

Gardening involves lots of experimentation, and I'd love to collaborate 
on some experiments with others!

I'm part of a one-car family, so I'm transportation-challenged. So, i 
might not be able to make meetings, but it would be great to know others 
in this area who are facing the challenges of this same climate.

Some things I'm curious about are strawberries and sweet potatoes -- 
never grown either.

Count me in!
