Growth

If you plant at the end of May.......



Add some sun and rain over the next few months...



You just might end up with a bountiful harvest!


Yummy!


I have to share....My Pop Pop was an amazing gardener. So much so, that when I am in the garden and I smell the basil and tomatoes, I smell him. The smell is just one in the same. Pop Pop = garden. I however, have always had a black thumb.

In his honor, however, I decided to give it a try this summer and see what we could do together. My hubby and I cleared some land, and my mom and I did the planting. I earnestly prayed to Pop Pop. His faith was always an inspiration and I figured if he would be a patron saint of anything it would be the backyard garden. So I asked him to bless our garden and to keep watch over it.

Needless to say, my faith and my garden continue to grow. Some may say it has just been a good year for crops, I know better.
