If so, I’ll PM my mailing address. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1922069 Thu, 24 May 2018 20:29:22 +0000 L'Abeille 1922069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's funny because I have a totally different take on this. Some of my children live in apartments in big cities, or cabins in the woods where the deer and rabbits devour anything that isn't protected by a cage. And my elderly parents had to give up a home with 3 gardens to move into an apartment with limited balcony space. All of them can't wait to mess around in my flower garden and vegetable patch when they come to visit, and I'm sure would be thrilled to have such an offer where they live.</p> <p>Perhaps there is some climate effect. Maybe you aren't exactly in sunny southern California, but compared to Canada you might as well be... Here where the winter feels like it lasts for 8 months of the year, even the blackest-thumbed of us can't wait to dig our hands into real dirt and see green things grow once the spring finally arrives. (My fingers are getting itchy just typing this!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1922067 Thu, 24 May 2018 20:25:55 +0000 Anonymous 1922067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lemons! Omg I will tell you where to ship them- lol. I go through lemons like nobody’s business.<br /> Hang tough girl. Use your “ green thumb “ for good - haha </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921962 Thu, 24 May 2018 14:58:27 +0000 rachylou 1921962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, no. No one offers to take my excess lemons or a spot for my tomatoes... their offers more come with a lot of suggestions about what *I might do.* Lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921957 Thu, 24 May 2018 14:46:59 +0000 Anonymous 1921957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We have downsides our garden as we have aged. But our neighbors know when produce gets out of hand that we will be delivering goodies to their door step.<br /> But yeah- I might be a little suspicious in your case.lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921944 Thu, 24 May 2018 14:06:30 +0000 JAileen 1921944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does sound suspect, but a couple years ago I offered space in one of my vegetable beds to my next door neighbor. His yard is shady and his tomatoes take forever to ripen. I wasn’t expecting him to do any yard work, nor any produce from his plant! First, he’s 80 and has yard people do his yard work for him, and I plant four beds of tomatoes (two dozen plants), so I have plenty of tomatoes. Since then, he’s devised a system of above ground planters in a sunnier area, and now usually has the first ripe tomato of the season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921898 Thu, 24 May 2018 11:54:35 +0000 cindysmith 1921898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm over here laughing, because if somebody offered me free garden space, I'd absolutely suspect that they wanted me to do their yardwork<br /> :-O </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921849 Thu, 24 May 2018 07:33:47 +0000 rachylou 1921849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, so you know what’s even more funny? After I made this post, after lunch, my co-worker comes up to me and says totally unprompted... ‘Hey, this girl I know offered me gardening space in her backyard...’ He’s signed up for landscape architecture classes, yeah, and I guess she’s trying to help him pursue his dreams... Lololol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921844 Thu, 24 May 2018 05:27:43 +0000 Gigi 1921844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! I thought this post was going to be about community gardening or something. I've not heard of this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921838 Thu, 24 May 2018 04:13:29 +0000 bridgie 1921838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>rachylou, that is too funny.&nbsp; Run as fast as you can away from them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/%e2%80%98free%e2%80%99-garden-space#post-1921837 Thu, 24 May 2018 04:02:19 +0000 rachylou 1921837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a question... do other people have people offering to ‘let’ them have space in their gardens? I do. All the time. I think they think they can get free yard work and garden veg outta me.... jus’ sayin’... Lol! </p>
