"Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power & magic in it. - Goethe
This furry chicken egg is from my neighbor's chickens here on the island. He and his wife are one of several friends I know with thriving organic gardens, one of several people on the island who have inspired my start at a more sustainable lifestyle.
What a project this dream is! My summer has been completely consumed with the infant baby I call my garden! 37 by 16 ft of blossoming food, which cries like a baby, for picking, feeding and loving! But like the children, what joy amidst all this work. The day I discovered that the exotic leafy bush was OKRA was big. My neighbor gave me handfuls of seeds and in my rush I just got them in the ground without labels. It made for lots of excitement though next garden I will plant considering not only sunshine how enormous some of this has become. Gotta run. Tomatoes to blanch. :)
