Meeting modern day challenges with ancient wisdom
Happiness in Deer Park Garden
Our Gardeners (Left to Right): Nancy, Cecilia, Sukie, Denise, Ginger and Cindy (kneeling down)
Overheard in Deer Park Garden on our Wednesday work day....
I'll weed. I'll help. I'll mound the potatoes. I'll water. I'll spread compost. Look at these bees, they are just loaded with pollen. Who needs blue flax seeds for their garden? What kind of tomato is that? Are these squash ready to pick? Did these hollyhocks bloom like this last summer? How should we support this apple tree branch? The raccoons had a party this week in Mother's Garden and tore everything up. |
Denise with a beet harvest
Look at the size of this beet.
You know you can eat the beet greens too? Did anyone harvest onions? Can you believe, there are even more sunflowers this week? This is the best garden we've had in years. What new seeds can be planted now? Does anyone want lemon balm? What should I do with these comfrey leaves? Let's pick flowers for everyone to have a bouquet this week. What a privilege it is to be a part of this garden team and spend time in such a beautiful space. We hope you will all take time to enjoy this year's lovely garden. Check out the hollyhocks, did they bloom like this last summer? By Sukie |
