Singing in the Garden

Your vegetable garden needn’t succumb to too-little rain. Careful planning and consistent attention can help assure healthy plants and good yields even in dry conditions.

The big beautiful blossoms last a long time, and don’t require much in the way of specialized attention to achieve.

A lot of yard and garden cleanup awaited me last fall, after a sweltering summer. I had a mess on my hands, but was glad – more than glad, ecstatic – to be outside, day after day, drinking in the world.

It’s not just for sustenance, but too for exercise, drinking in life and beauty, and maintaining humility.
