The Garden

I stay busy with mowing the grass about every 5 days and working in the garden and my flowers. It is a joy to garden in Maine. Everything grows...just put it in the ground and water it frequently and it thrives and produces fruit. The squash and cucumbers have small fruit and lots of blooms and the garden tomatoes have large green tomatoes and blooms. The patio tomatoes have small cherry salad tomatoes and lots of blooms too. I will have an abundance of cucumbers to make pickles and preserve a few pints of tomatoes. Reminds me of growing up on the farm in Tennessee. Thanks goes to my mom for teaching her daughters to cook and preserve food and to dad for teaching us how to garden.
