Garden Fresh




Well, after all the rain the garden just exploded. We have been eating fresh salads every night. It has been fabulous! I would highly recommend gardening to anyone who has the inclination. This all emerged from some seeds I bought from Burpee and a few plants I picked up through my local farmer's co-op. When I planted the garden I kind of wondered if anything would really grow. It is so amazing what comes from seeds. If you are new to gardening, start with radishes. They sprout up the fastest. And a place I haven't yet purchased from but is an incredibly fascinating organization is Seed Savers. You can visit them at www.seedsavers.org and read all about their mission and the great seeds they offer. As a tangent, if you are really interested, you should read about the Svalbard Global Seed Vault to which they are contributing.
