It was a good garden day!

I got out yesterday in the backyard and had some fun in my backyard garden. It was time to spread out two of my ready compost piles and put plants in them. That is always such a joy for me. The compost piles were ready. The dirt was crumbly and had that musty smell of deep-woods dirt. It was soft to... Sign in to see full entry.

My garden looks great

Even though it is getting on in the year my garden is still doing great. With the onset of cooler weather my garden has made somewhat of a comeback.

A few short words on my compost piles

I have to mow grass in my back yard today. I let a professional cut the front yard to make it look great. He also rakes, edges, and do many other things that I am not going to do. I will cut the grass in the back and then rake up the clippings for the compost pile. I am big on the compost pile. I... Sign in to see full entry.

My garden

“IT’S A HEALING GARDEN” Late last year and early this year I had a few medical problems. It was nothing major or life threatening, but it woke me up. It made me realize that while still young, forty-six years old, I had to begin to take better care of myself. My lifestyle had led me to these... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

After a few medical problems earlier this year I began to look at my garden in a different way. It became more than a place to grow plants. It became a healing mechanism.
