"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

"A garden is evidence of faith. It links us with all the misty figures of the past who also planted and were nourished by the fruits of their planting."

( -- Gladys Taber, American author (born 4/12/1899))
