We live in Kilmer Pond neighborhood in St Louis Park. I am an artist and a Realtor, and we love our neighborhood- It is really a cool place to live, first ring suburb, we live on the edges of St Louis Park. Near Minnetonka, we have the ability to access just about everything - Parks, Lakes, Shopping. My home studio includes an outside area that is private and lush with Flowers, especially in the Spring and Summer. It is so nice having everyone over to see my newest art !

Mid Winter 2011 Seed Catalog Time !

Thinking about the garden this time of the year. What a wonderful thing to think about when the seeds of time take us forward to summer instead of bearing on with the 5 below weather. It will be a wonderful year we are re-instituting a garden club that has been in hibernation for more than one winter ! It started in the 60's as a group of gardeners/homeowners helped the city make a public space near and around Kilmer Lake, sometimes known as Kilmer Pond. They laid sod, planted gardens over the years, and had a thriving garden club. The archives showed that the garden club actually was the very beginning of the homeowners association. More on this later. We will mirror the activities of the Diggers Garden Club in Robbinsdale, so that until we get further into organizing we will be with the Robbinsdale Club for their monthly activities and meetings.
