My husband asked me why I wanted to blog. He isn't a gardener so the need to share with other gardeners, talk about gardening or read about gardening doesn't appeal to him. But because he has other fabulous qualities (for instance, he hardly ever complains about my addiction to plants, never complains about picking up dinner when I have been outside all day and am too tired to pick it up myself, he doesn't care what I do to the yard and he made me an Inuksuk*) I will give his question serious thought and attempt to answer it.
Why did I want to blog? It's really simple, I was frustrated that I couldn't find anyone talking about cedar glade gardening. Don't get me wrong, there are wonderful websites with great information about cedar glades, but almost all are government sites or natural areas. Just google cedar glade gardens and see what I mean.
The problem was that none of them spoke directly to the gardener who wanted to honor the cedar glade conditions she had come to accept, albeit reluctantly. So I decided to start a blog that would talk about my experiences gardening and about cedar glades.
My hope is that others in the Middle Tennessee-Central South will find it helpful.

*an Inuksuk is singular for Inuksuit. "Inuksuit were stone figures placed on the temporal and spiritual landscapes by the Inuit people of Canada. Among many practical functions, they were employed as hunting and navigation aids, coordination points, indicators, and message centers."
