Welcome Dowbright! What a beautiful area around the lakes. I wish I could get up there more often.

I think a good place to start would be to contact the Master Gardener Program in your area. They should have volunteers to answer questions over the phone. It's hard to tell from the map below which one would be closest to you. There might be more than one close-by. They should be able to give you some local info and I bet there's someone in the group that will know a lot about organics.
