Thank you, David.

I was actually inspired to garden by visiting a homeowner's garden near where we were living in a temporary apartment. I drove by this property almost every day and longed to see it. Then I noticed a sign by their driveway that said "Beauty is meant to be shared...feel free to come in and enjoy our gardens". I was so excited, and went to visit often. I met the homeowner several times as he was working outside, and he just had a true love for gardening. He sold beautiful bouquets of flowers for $5.00 (honor system). I told myself if I ever got the chance go garden, I would share with others.

It's amazing how giving someone a little thing like a tomato plant can get them interested in growing their own food, flowers, etc. I love to share my love of gardening with others. And who doesn't like a homegrown tomato???? Smiling
