"For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."

Gardening Quote of the Day

"In the evenings I scrape my fingernails clean, hunt through old catalogues for new seed, oil workboots and shears This garden is no metaphor - more a task that swallows you into itself earth using, as always, everything it can. (from November, Remembering Voltaire) "

( -- Jane Hirschfield, American poet)
