I am taking the approach that the way to learn how to blog is to jump in. So here I am with nothing prepared in advance, but lots of ideas and photographs. I am Chuck Gleaves, a gardener in north central Ohio. I have a master's degree in botany and I have been working in the public garden profession my entire career (about thirty years). While as the Director of a public garden (Kingwood Center) I now do precious little hands on gardening at work, but I am in the midst of gardens, garden information, gardeners, and garden issues all day long. And when I get home to my ten acres of land I head for my garden.
I expect to make new postings about once a week. I don't count this as a real posting so I will get busy and post some comments and supporting pictures.
I believe gardening can be a key component of gratifying lifestyles. How to do that is the theme of this blog. Gardening can create a desirable living environment, provide us an avenue to connect with other living things, and offer us a creative outlet. It is an entree to a system of life on earth that can be as simple as enjoying a homegrown carrot or as complex as massaging a garden into a plant community in equilibrium.
