Garden Jubilee

magic-mamaWhat can I say????  Kendra one of our fearless farmgirl friends had a fabulous shabby chic booth at our local Garden Jubilee festival. She put together some themed herb, salad and tea pots and baskets with a lot of nice touches to add to her presentation…. loved your tags! Sorry I didn’t get any close ups of them.  Great job on the sign Jen.  I brought home some echinacea(sp?) and local mountain mint.  The echinacea is in the ground but I’ve got to think about where to contain the mint. I’m hoping the weekend was a success despite the rain.

Garden Green

I’ve gardened a little in the past and I’ve read a lot about gardening, but this year I’m really trying to understand how to be successful at it.  What I can say so far is I’m having to exercise a lot of patience.  Beginning with starting a seed indoors weeks before it even gets in the ground to watching it slowly grow- nature just goes along at such a slower pace than we do.  To stop, watch and listen to all the little things around me is truly a joy.  Just being around the garden with my children is such a blessing, they feel it’s draw to look in to see what’s going on… what seeds have sprouted, what flower is blooming.  Discovery and wonder……. it’s rubbing off on me.
