Thank-you for your kind words! I don’t do a huge amount of gardening, but I’ve had volunteer plants that have thrived as well. You never know!

Here’s to next year and the possibility of a variety of pumpkins and gourds! 🙂

Thanks for your kind words.

We’ve grown some garden stuff most years for a lot of years, but I’m still pretty clueless as a gardener! ha! 🙂

The weeds do grow so much easier than the good stuff! Too true in life at times, too!

ok this might sound clueless to some people (because I am of course clueless about gardening) but your garden described our garden and I never knew that grass and weeds and all things bad can creep up so fast. It really did bring home to me though the importance of weeding out stuff in my own life but to also know that the harvest we did receive was because of God same with life. I love how you wrote this. It would make a perfect little book. your neighbor at #tellhisstory

I feel as if I’ve just read a parable from a very wise woman! And these words capture my gardener’s heart.
(Some of my best and biggest pumpkins have struggled their way out of the compost pile from seeds that were flung there and survived a Maine winter.)
