Let me put this right out there: I am not happy unless I have some
dirt stuck under my fingernails at some point in the day!
There I’ve said it. Now this doesn’t mean that I go around with dirty
hands or anything like that, but the feel of the earth on my hands is like a
salve that takes all my troubles away.
Short of Parenthood, I don’t know of any other miracles that we are allowed
to partake in. Parenthood lets you (two) become the makers of a new life.
Gardening lets you take a little seed, with all its Genetic Materials
wrapped tightly inside it, and nurture it to life as a plant, that will bear
many more seeds just like itself.
Gardeners help to color the world with their own special brand of flowers
and help feed our families and friends with the abundance, from our
gardens.
I have been a gardener for a very long time. My parents started us
off, by making us help weed the vegetable gardens. Our home grown tomatoes
were the best! While I was young, I’m not sure that I had the same
appreciation for getting my hands dirty. Over the years though, that has
changed.
I love to garden, help other people learn about gardening, encourage others
to try something new and share all the beauty that is out there. Come join
me and a great bunch of others, as we learn and grow, not only our gardens, but
also our minds, bodies and souls.
After all, I think that was how I was made the Weekend Gardener. I have two lists of gardening tools and products that need to be reviewed and I would welcome you to
join in the fun. Tell us what you like about any one of the things you see
on either list, write about your experiences and I will make sure that everyone
sees what you have to offer. I will promote your writings on Facebook,
Google+ and Pinterest so that all your great ideas will be shared.
Gardening has been a passion of mine for the last 40 years or more. Now don't start adding the years to figure out how old this Grammie is....cause I'll tell you! I will be 60 this coming 4th of July, so get the fireworks ready.
I love to share gardening ideas, tools, plants, best practices and anything else that makes gardening more enjoyable.
When I find something I like, I Pin it on Pinterest
If you have something that would interest other Gardeners, please don't hesitate to reach out and let me know. I'm only too happy to spread around the beauty that I find in nature.
