What shall I grow?

What shall I grow?

Seed catalogs have been arriving in the mailbox.
There are all ready lists of seeds to order.
What will I nurture in the greenhouse?
What will I repeat and what will I try new?
How will the kitchen garden be planted this year?

First Day Of Winter

First Day Of Winter

It has all ready been a long, cold, snowy Fall!
What will Winter bring?
As the seed catalogs come in the mail, I began to garden plan on paper, though It will be months yet before a seed is planted in the greenhouse.
January brings a long awaited special moment for this gardener.
Watch for our garden in the Early Spring issue of Country Gardens magazine.
Pick up a copy and let me know what you think!

Heavenly Scent

Heavenly Scent

I trimmed some greens to use for some wreaths and decorations, and can’t help but be instantly in the holiday mood.
The smell from freshly cut evergreens….well that’s the most wonderful scent of the season.

The 500th Post

The 500th Post

As the sun is setting on the garden this evening, I can’t help but reflect on the start of this garden and my little garden blog.
So much has come from this little spot on earth. Food for our family, beautiful flowers for our home, peaceful moments, and opportunities I had only dreamed of.
Thank you to all who have stopped by and taken the time to explore the garden.
Those who have left comments, I read and appreciate each and every one.
For those that have chosen to follow me…thank you.
Hugs garden friends.

Garden Homework

Laura came home to do her homework in the garden.
With camera and tripod, she decided the garden was a great backdrop for her assignment.
