Sounds good and welcome. I think you'll find this a pretty well-informed forum. Perhaps you should tell the group a little more about yourself. Like:
1. where in NM are you from and what gardening issues/challenges/advantageous does that hold for you?
2. what exactly do you like to grow and eat and why?
3. how do you attempt to achieve the answer to #2?
We look forward to hearing more. Also, you may want to perform a search or two to see if any of the topics in which you're interested have been covered or addressed. It's also nice to add on to existing topics (if related) instead of starting a new one (it keeps the board a bit cleaner).
Looking forward to your next post...
