About Me

My photo
Wendy
Zone 6/7, Maryland
I am a high school counselor by day and a landscape architect or possibly farmer in my dreams. I volunteer as a DC Master Gardener. In spare moments, I am a freelance writer with national publication credits. I have also been a symposium speaker. I record my family and garden ramblings on Greenish Thumb for posterity and to share the probably mundane, possibly profoundish thoughts that only other gardeners would smile, nod their heads at and say, "oh, that's so true!". This is also my space to post the photos that we gardeners are endlessly taking - and that our non-gardening friends really could give a *&$^ about. I'd love your feedback. Please leave a comment and come back again! You can contact me at wkspray at gmail dot com. Thanks for visiting!
