A Special Garden
Now that it is May it is time to start thinking about planting
a garden. So today I will share with you something that I
received this week. It is the type of garden that we may plant
anywhere or anytime of year. So I hope you will enjoy this
special garden so much that you will start planting one today!
PLANT THREE ROWS OF PEAS - FOR THE GARDEN OF
YOUR DAILY LIVING
1. PEACE OF MIND
2. PEACE OF HEART
3. PEACE OF SOUL
PLANT FOUR ROWS OF SQUASH:
1. Squash gossip
2. Squash indifference
3. Squash grumbling
4. Squash selfishness
PLANT FOUR ROWS OF LETTUCE:
1. Lettuce be faithful
2. Lettuce be kind
3. Lettuce be patient
4. Lettuce really love one another
Now NO GARDEN SHOULD BE WITHOUT TURNIPS - SO
PLANT 3 ROWS OF TURNIPS:
1. Turnip for meetings
2. Turnip for service
3. Turnip to help one another
FINALLY, YOUR GARDEN MUST HAVE THYME:
1. Thyme for each other
2. Thyme for family
3. Thyme for friends
4. Thyme for prayer
WATER FREELY WITH PATIENCE & CULTIVATE WITH LOVE.
THERE SHOULD BE MUCH FRUIT IN YOUR GARDEN, AFTER
ALL "WE REAP WHAT WE SOW." Therefore happy gardening. Amen.

Garden Tidbits
GARDEN TIDBITS
Today I have several frugal gardening tips!
Homemade Seed Tape:
You'll need:
1 cup flour
1/4 cup water
seeds
strips of newspaper
Mix together the flour and water until it resembles
a batter. This will be your glue.
Take a strip of newspaper and lay it flat on your
work surface. Look at the seed instructions for
the spacing needed between seeds. Dab some
glue with that amount of space in-between each
glob of glue. Place one seed in each glob and
allow them all to lay flat until they dry.
Prepare your bed, lay the strip down in the bed
and cover with the amount of soil specified on
the seed packet. Water gently.
Leftover screen: When you replace screens there
are always scraps leftover from trimming. Save
this and use it to lay in the bottom of pots to keep
the soil from falling out and it will keep bugs/pests
from crawling in through the hole.
Plastic knives: use them as plant markers. Write the
plant name on with permanent marker and stick in
the pots, seed starter containers or the ground.
