Gardening Roots
Good morning!
Do you know where you got your love of gardening? I got mine from my grandparents and great grandparents, who always had a garden. They grew tomatoes, green beans, potatoes, squash, carrots, and more. My grandmother also had a great fondness for geraniums, lilacs, and roses. My great grandfather used to take his prize vegetables to church on Sundays (in a horse and wagon!) and sell them to his neighbors after Mass. I think the gardening gene skips over generations because my parents have next to no interest in gardening themselves! I caught the bug early on when I used to help pick my grandparent’s green beans at the age of 5. I’d love to know how you got your love of all things green and growing! Post a comment and let me know!

I just had it in my bones - the fascination of seeing things grow and being outside - it was just there!
