Meet the Bloggers

Welcome to the Veg Head Blog. We are off to a great start. Keep checking back with us as our bloggers add their information and introduce themselves.

ZGarden's Personal Info
I have been a Denton County Master Gardener since 2006. My husband and I live in Flower Mound. Although we've had a small vegetable garden in a raised bed the past few years, this year we decided to kick things up a notch. My husband expanded the raised bed built with concrete blocks to double the size. This year we're growing tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, eggplant, jalapenos, cantalope, onions and lots of herbs.


M&G's Backyard Garden Personal Info
I started gardening in the City of Denton in 1984 and have been gardening for most of my life. Vegetables are my specialty and I have found out that you can grow virtually anything in Denton County. Soil preparation is important, of course, and it really gets hot in the summer. However, variety selection and proper gardening techniques can lead to successful year-round gardening. With the new knowledge I gained this year in the Denton County Master Gardener program, I look forward to even more success in growing wonderful things here in Denton


Pigs Fly Ranch Garden
Pigs Fly is a 4.5-acre "ranch" in south Denton County not far from the U.S. Corps of Engineer equestrian trails. We have a veggie garden, a blackberry-plus-lantana garden, a native plant garden, a butterfly garden and several compost piles. We also have 9 pygmy goats, two horses, two dogs, three cats and two bee hives.
