Looking Ahead to 2012

Happy New Year! A fresh year stretches ahead – 366 days of work and play, exploration and learning, family and friends, projects and experiments, travels and excursions, and gardens! Hopefully with plenty of personal growth, insights, creativity, challenges, and focus added to the mix.

Looking ahead, I’m not setting New Year’s Resolutions, but I am charting out some of my gardening-goals for 2012:
  • Identify more San Francisco Bay Area native trees and plants, and continue to study plant communities and nature.
  • Visit more local botanical gardens, regional parks, and estate gardens.
  • Study early garden history – from ancient times to the Renaissance.
  • Continue to experiment with my vegetable garden.
  • Travel to other climate zones to learn about their flora, fauna, and geology, and compare and contrast with the Bay Area.
Explore - visit new places.
Experiment - find solutions.
Enjoy - beautiful plants.
Educate - learn and teach.

Hope you will join me on this quest!
