I love the photos! This is so beautiful and I would love to see this turned into a book, a cookbook and gardening book one day which I would definitely want to have copy :) So lovely!

Potager is a new word for me too. I am so envious of all the delicious things you have in your gardens already. Let's hope we can skip the snow and hail this spring and get planting!

Love the name "POTAGERS" and how you integrate New Orleans traditions with Colorado gardening in the WILD WEST !

Even in Southern Oregon we have had below freezing temps and WILD snow storms this last weekend, so everybody get ready for another one in Colorado...... Just in time for Mother's Day.

SOIL is the SECRET !! Yes, Julia, I remember when our CSU Master Gardening instructor taught us to spend 90% on SOIL , 10% on plants.

Love you J ! and LOVE reading all these detailed and artfully written stories :). ~ Gina
