Good catch, Chris. I’ve fixed that link. We will be using the original Koha, supported by Equinox.

Hi great to see more koha users. The site for koha supported and hosted by multiple vendors is koha-community.org. The site you have linked to is the liblime only version, and after nearly 4 years of divergence it is a totally different thing to Koha

Comment on Edible Gardening Books Reviewed in Time for Spring Planting by Gardening Maintenance Birmingham

A very interesting article and i think Rebecca raises some very valid points. I think people are realising that they can grow superior vegetables at home compared to those offered by the big supermarket chains. Healthier, cheaper and tastier. Its a great way to go.

Being a keen gardener and photographer, I am envious of people who have the talent to draw the intricacies of plants and at the same time brig them to life. Taking a photograph is one thing but capturing the plant or animal by drawing must give you a great sense of creativity. Often when I am out in the garden with my trusty rototiller or pruning you see things that you wish you could draw. Drawing is more of a signature and more personal than photography where the camera takes this away.

Hi Linda,
That quilt costs $450 and is about 18″ by 18″ in size.
Thank you for your interest. The exhibit will be up through January 29.

I am very interested in your current exhibition from the Contemporary Quilt Art Association. In particular, I love Sonia Grasvik’s “Garden Gal…Dig It…In Spades”. Is it available for purchase, what is its’ size, and the price? Thank, Linda

Thank you for the lovely party tonight and for being invited to be there. Judy and I had a wonderful time and saw so many friends.

I also want to thank everyone on the Miller Library staff, especially Brian, Martha,
Carrie and volunteers, most especially Liz, for all the help and kindness in getting that little water color show of flowers up and looking good back in January. It looked so good, sold well, and wow, what a good opening party! Thanks for making it such fun. You were all so incredibly generous with your efforts.

My first visit to the Miller Library was when I arrived as the CUH Gardener. At this time, the library was temporarily located in Isaacson. The Miller Library helped me aquaint myself with the flora of the Pacific Northwest. Being from the great gardening climate state of California, I was struck at this great resource–an entire library dedicated to horticulture. Topped with a decidated and knowledgable staff that are enthusiastic about plants and gardening. How cool is that?!

Although I’m no longer at CUH, I continue to use the Miller Library as a professional gardener. What a gem! Congratulations to 25 years. I look forward to celebrating with you.

I have not read the book “Ireland’s Wild Orchids: a Field Guide”, but it seems interesting! I am a writer myself, and I recently finished writing an eBook on “Orchid Information” and I would love to write a second volume inspired by the field guide of Ireland’s Wild orchids
