Seed To Soil

Seed To Soil

In just a few short weeks, I will start trays of seeds for the next garden season.

This process may just be my favorite part of gardening.  The greenhouse is warm and moisture covers the inside glass, giving almost a watercolor effect to the snowy landscape outside.

Quiet days, filling pots and trays of herbs, vegetables and flowers.

I fill the greenhouse from top to bottom, enough for me, and plenty to offer in a little “Extra Sale”

This year I will also be growing flowers and herbs that will be used in our daughters wedding.

Reflections

2014 was a busy year for the garden.
2014 was a busy year for the garden.

The garden was shared with many this past year.

Country Gardens magazine chose the little greenhouse and Rabbit Run Cottage to grace it’s cover in January,

and two garden tours brought hundreds of visitors to the garden this summer.

So grateful for all of these opportunities that this little spot on earth has provided.

To all of you who stop by Down To Earth Digs, and peek over the garden fence, thank you.

Soon another garden season will began in the little greenhouse.

I can’t wait to get started and tell you all about it.

Happy New Year, Stacey

Happy Hanukkah! (Right on Thyme)

Brenda was able to pick fresh Thyme from her garden, and made a fragrant wreath to decorate her beautiful Menorah.
Pop over and take a peek!

Menorah with thyme wreath

May the light shine brightly on everyone, this dark December night, whether or not you celebrate Hanukkah. May you find time for things that bring you joy. May your dreams clarify and your wishes inch toward completion. May seasonal magic warm you and keep you safe. Be well, Brenda

Note: I have been working on braiding this thyme wreath, inspired by a post by Stacey of Down to Earth Digs. Although not finished, it has made my kitchen smell of summer. I plan to tie it with ribbon and hang it among my pottery. Thanks for the great idea, Stacey!!
