Hi, I’m Edna Kelly and I like to play in the dirt. Gardening, that is. I’m more or less retired from “real” work, so these days you can usually find me puttering around in the garden, in the shadehouse or with the animals we have on our little 2-1/2 acre farm. My goal is to grow or produce as much of our own food as possible.
I can’t possibly be the only nut in the world trying to do this, so I’m sharing my experiences as we go along, trying to convert a “very big back yard” into a productive mini-farm that two old ladies can handle.
So… come join me, if you don’t mind playing in the dirt!
Miz Edna,
I enjoyed reading about your Moringa experiences.
A few weeks ago I planted 7 Moringa Stenepetala in pots in Yetebon Village Ethiopia.
Now I am back in Fort Myers and will probably, after a few years of being a “snow bird” be living here year ’round. My wife, being a native, prefers that.
I will try growing a few select veggies in the summer in the small area available to me.

I’m not familiar with the Moringa Stenopetala at all… And there doesn’t seem to be much information on it that I can find. Any info you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Will it grow in Ft Myers?
Don’t see a contact link, so I’ll just ask here if you’d like to exchange blog links with me. I live in SW Florida too, halfway between Tampa and Ft. Myers. My blog is http://theconsummategardener.com and I also write the South Florida Gardening column on Examiner.com ( http://www.examiner.com/x-8286-South-Florida-Gardening-Examiner ). I guess you can contact me by clicking on my name, or write me at dsa2591 at gmail.
Absolutely yes, I’d like to exchange blog links with you! Uh, “halfway between Tamp and Ft Myers” puts you… around Sarasota? I’m halfway between Sarasota and Ft Myers, in Punta Gorda.
I’ve added that missing contact information to my “About Me” page, but here it is again: info@ednakelly.com
