Garden Forum is Ready

Hello Garden Folks!

Are you tired of all the emails in your inbox?  ME TOO!

In response to requests for a better form of community communication, the RCG Forum has been created.

Please SIGN UP!

http://ravinagarden.boards.net/

This space is 99% members only, with a volunteer thread open to guests.

I encourage you to set your privacy levels within your own profile. I also encourage everyone to use their real name, so that we can get to know each other better and make that face to face connection in the garden easily.

Team emails will no longer be sent, so be sure to introduce yourself in the thread you've volunteered to help out in and make your connections over there.

Looking forward to seeing you all on the forum and to waaaaaay less time writing and sending emails.

Feedback is greatly appreciated on what works and what needs modified.
