Hi! What's up? I want to plant
a few thoughts on gardening..
Take time to walk outside and look around, not just at the
flowers, but take it all in. Fill your lungs with fresh air.
You will feel the mental and physical difference at once.
Don't be afraid of your garden, it's only dirt, and in your
hands, can yield a jackpot of treasures! |

"How
To Grow
Great Vegetables"
From: you-can-learn.com/gardening.
The great thing about home gardening is not that we may get our vegetables
ten per cent cheaper; but that we can have them one hundred per cent better.
Even the long-keeping sorts, like squash, potatoes and onions, are much
more delicious right from the home garden, fresh from the vines or the
ground; but when it comes to peas, and corn, and lettuce, well, there
is absolutely nothing to compare with the home garden ones, gathered fresh,
in the early slanting sunlight, still gemmed with dew, still crisp and
tender and juicy, ready to carry every atom of savory quality, without
loss, to the dining table.
And don’t forget the most important reason why you should garden
It is the cheapest, healthiest, keenest pleasure there is. Give me a sunny
garden patch in the golden springtime, when the trees are picking out
their new gowns, in all the various self-colored delicate grays and greens—strange
how beautiful they are, in the same old unchanging styles, isn’t
it?
Give me seeds to watch as they find the light, plants to tend as they
take hold in the fine, loose, rich soil, and you may have the other sports.
And when you have grown tired of their monotony, come back in summer to
even the smallest garden, and you will find in it, every day, a new problem
to be solved, a new campaign to be carried out, a new victory to win.

My Garden is my haven, my place to go just for
me. I don’t have the lasting power to water everything at
once, so I do things in steps. A few get water one day, a few the
next. When I need a break from the stress, the noise, the pressure
of everyday life, I just sit and enjoy the garden. It’s like
another room in my house, just outside. I breath in the sites, the
smells, and enjoy in the pure beauty of it. AND IT'S MINE! |
