Workshop Description
Ours is a land of plenty and ripe with potential. Ample rainfall (ahem), good soil and moderate temperatures grant a long and hospitable growing season. But we grow things a little differently in the Pacific Northwest. All gardening is local, and especially so if you happen to reside in a region embraced by mountains, bordered by salt water or run through by rivers.
