A Joyous Christmastide!

These 12 Days of Christmas are treasured. Here are scenes from yesterday in my veg garden that won’t quit, and today, New Year’s Eve, with the garden aglow at dusk. Wishing all a restorative season with renewed energy for all 2025 holds! Arise, shine; for your light has come… Isaiah 60:1

  Hello Beth! So glad you came to visit the garden. It has been a treat to have fresh veg into January. We’re wondering if a cold spell and snow will finally end this bounty as it has for fellow gardeners in other parts of the country and across the pond.

What a fantastic effect the stars have on the garden, and the vegetables haven’t missed a beat with the colder weather. It all looks wonderful! All the best for an excellent 2025!
