Neilson, always seemed to have some sort of vegetable patch growing. We, family of seven kids, always learned of a new veggie to eat, from his patch. We had swiss chard, spinach, artichokes, brussel sprouts, corn, tomatoes and so many other “trials” of fruits and vegetables. We had a lovely crab apple tree, loquat and plum trees too, and my dad would try his hand at baking different treats for us. I’m sure we all retain some fond memories, of growing up under his enthusiastic, no pressure, tutelage. I always have some sort of curious plants tucked in my garden, and containers to try my hand at 🙂 Thank you Dad!

I loved to dig in the dirt and plant flowers. It has always amazed me that you can plant a tiny little seed in the ground and grow beautiful flowers and delicious veggies!

Jonquil: Your grandma Thelma sounds like she had a wonderful garden with all those roses and comfrey too. I do understand your frustration with the food system, and I think that’s why so many young people are turning to gardening edibles today. Thanks for sharing! Good luck!

Teresa, Thanks for sharing. We’ve heard so many stories today of family members and others who have gotten us all gardening. I’m sure her house still holds many memories for you. Good luck in this random drawing!
