Anticipation

Anticipation

My carefully tended tomato plants are ready for planting.

This basket from last season holds many of my favorite heirlooms.

Ananas Noir, Emerald Evergreen, Creme Brule, Ferris Wheel, Chocolate and more!

These are the gems of my kitchen garden.

Cash Crop

Gardening seems to be paying off!

While weeding and cleaning flower beds, a slightly faded five dollar bill caught my eye!

I did look around for more, but this seems to be the only one–for now!

Hoping I have a few more sprouting up!

When The Pickles Are Gone

Growing Herbs

Today I had the pleasure of speaking at our local library.

I love herbs and hopefully inspired some gardeners to start a culinary herb garden.

Little starter pots of herbs can be kept from drying out under a little overturned canning jar.

Daylily Chores

When the lilies are in bloom, I dead head each evening.

It’s a quiet, peaceful garden chore that I rather enjoy.

In the morning I’m greeted with fresh looking plants ready to open more flowers for the day.
