Suddenly, we are having days with warm temperatures and scented breezes, and suddenly I find myself thinking about the garden. And this year, for the first time ever, I’m thinking about … vegetables!
“Spring shows what God can do with a drab and dirty world.”
Virgil A. Kraft
Everything that slows us down and forces patience,
everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.
May Sarton
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach him to fish and he eats for a lifetime. Teach him to garden and the whole neighborhood gets tomatoes, squash, cucumbers …
Plant and your spouse plants with you; weed and you weed alone.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit;
wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
Miles Kington
Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them. A.A. Milne
There are no gardening mistakes, only experiments.
Janet Kilburn Phillips
Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes!
You can’t see plants growing – unless you speed up the film – but you know they do. Each day, tiny changes take place. It’s the same with your life.
