I am by no means an expert gardener. I have successes and failures, like everything else in life. There are seemingly endless way to do something wrong, while almost never finding one way to do things right. But I return to gardening year after year. I find it rewarding, even when I fail. There is such beauty in watching something grow, in learning its life-rhythm, in helping it along the way, and in the harvest. There is something healing in getting my hands dirty, the sweat of my brow, the heat of the sun, and the cool water from the hose. I feel connected to Creator and Creation, I feel at peace. I suppose I could call it ‘therapeutic’, but I don’t think that correctly captures my experience.
I want to share with you some pictures of my garden today. No how-tos, just pictures. I would love it if you did give growing something a try. Even just a tiny pot of flowers. I think you would find it rewarding, but I’ll save that for another time. For now, let’s look at things green and growing together.
The Vegetable Garden
Flowers
I also like to plant flowers around my home. Not only are they beautiful to behold and fragrant, they attract pollinators to my vegetable garden!
