For years now, prophets have told us to grow a garden.
Blessings of so many kinds flow from following this admonition!
There's nothing quite like picking a fresh tomato for a salad,
and working beside your children will build relationships
that you can't come by any other way.
If you've thought about digging in the dirt yourself,
it's never too late to start here in Georgia.

You can also use the "Square-Foot Gardening" method.
It's amazing what you can grow in just a small space.

We are blessed with a long growing season here in Georgia,
so it's never too late to get started.
It's a perfect time to get your garden ready
for a fall crop of pumpkins,
sweet potatoes, broccoli and lettuce.
Here are a couple of websites to help you out.

Our family has a little raised bed of tomatoes and herbs, and we've planted a grapevine along our ugly chain link fence that's seems to be doing pretty well - nothing fancy or elaborate, but we have little green tomatoes growing, and I can't wait for them to ripen! Now it's your turn - let me know if you're gardening this summer.
Check out this sister's to see her raised beds!
You'll find her link on the RS blog, too.)
Send me a picture or two and we'll post them on our blog.
