Where flowers bloom so does hope.
We are so very blessed to be gardeners.
We witness the natural beauty in our gardens whenever we wish.
We have faith when we cultivate and sow.
Then, our love makes them grow.
A garden is a friend you can visit anytime.
I wish I could be with my El Dedon friends, but for now, my silent friends in the garden will do.

How to Plant a Fall Garden and Grow Late-Season Crops
You may be in full summer-harvest mode, picking zucchini, tomatoes, and basil every night. Or maybe you got sidetracked this spring and your plans to get the vegetable garden going just never went according to plan. Well, here's some good news: Just because fall is on its way doesn't mean it's time to pack away your gardening gloves.
Gardening in El Paso-Articles
We extended our growing season – and you can, too! We have built our own raised bed hoop houses to grow cool weather crops at the El Paso Master Gardeners’ Texas A&M AgriLife Vegetable Demonstration Gardens. Our raised bed hoop houses, like row covers and cold frames, function like a small greenhouse as they give some winter weather climate control, protect against hungry insects, allow a longer growing and harvest season, and provide a safe place to start new seeds and to set out transplants.
THIS IS WHAT WE STAND FOR
MISSION STATEMENT
