Hi there! I've just found this forum and look forward to meeting you!


Quick background- 43, female, wife and mom. Employed part time as a buildings and grounds worker on a large campus. I've done small landscaping jobs on and off for 20 years, love organic maintenance but am learning to embrace "traditional" methods. NJ zone 7. Certified Fertilizer Applicator, working on pesticide applicator cert. AS in general science. Before this, I worked in heavy highway construction, specializing in bridges and elevated structures, concrete finishing and traffic control.

So I have my primary job, wife and mom, my part time job, buildings and grounds, and I'm starting to pick up clients on the side. I have only one now, but she's a dream. It's a rehab of a property, small but beautiful specimens, 3 ponds, and lots of opportunities. When I work there I feel like I'm in the book "The Secret Garden". LOVE it!

So anyway, I look forward to meeting you all and learning from you and sharing what I can.

:)

What do you do while you're resting? Thanks for sharing your busy and interesting life! Good luck to you, your family, and your customers.

Welcome to LMF! Lots of people on here with various areas of experience to share. Many times someone with a problem will receive several suggestions for the solution and you never know what you will learn. It's good to get a different P.O.V. on things! I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I'm always picking up new information and i've been working on engines for a long time. I've done some work on VW diesels, big Cummins diesels in the rigs, and some tractors and other equipment. I look fwd to reading your posts.
