Spring has sprung! Roll up your sleeves, pour yourself an ice cold glass of lemonade (or beverage of your choice), grab your shovel, and get ready for another year of tending to Mother Nature’s palate of colors and array of fragrances. Our friends, the bees, the birds, the earthworms, the butterflies, who share this environment with us, are on stand by to assist making your labor of love welcoming and beautiful to those who wander near.
The work at times is not easy, but we love it. Staying clean is not an option, but getting dirty is a must. Gardening is a passion that millions of us share from coast to coast. There are many different ‘zones’ and many different styles and designs, but there is one common thread amongst us gardeners. Gardeners love that feel of freshly tilled soil falling through their hands, the cold burst of water they feel as the garden hose soaks the ground below and the joy they experience when the job is complete.
The first step on the ground after it has thawed from the release of winters’ cold grip, always makes a gardener smile. The new buds on the trees, the chirps from our feathered friends, the longer days of light bring a wave of rejuvenation and excitement. Winter hibernation is over and it’s time to start putting the winter ideas into the soil.
Whether you live in the city, on the out skirts of town or in between; gardeners are ready wherever they are, to nurture the delicate beauty with their passion for gardening.
