The totally dirt loving, sunshine worshiping, seed planting, flower arranging meanderings of a poet and artist granny that can't get enough of growing things.
An avid gardener, painter, poet... expanding the boundaries, planting seeds with great faith, appreciating the abundance of the harvest... embracing all the lessons from the garden, the page and the paint brush....it's all about growing.

This photo of summer flowers was taken by Keith Couch at the Boise Capital Farmers Market. Every year growing up I heard Mom and Dad fuss a little bit about planting flowers in the food garden. And every year....Mom won out with marigolds and zinnias and cosmos cheering up the beans and tomato plants. A row of marigolds actually acts as a natural insect barrier.
