Starting From Seed





Alice Walker starts off our Tuesday morning with this profound insight. “And so our mothers and grandmothers have, more often than not anonymously, handed on the creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see - or like a sealed letter they could not plainly read.” So the simple question for today is what seeds will you plant today?


It's up to all the garden lovers to encourage the next generation about the simplicities of seeds, flowers and trees. Forgo the blisters from raking out the perennial beds, the veggie patch and cleaning up the fall leaves. What makes you get outside to plant, dig and weed? If you love to garden, it’s time to plant these seeds with the next generation of gardeners. And for anyone (including the 30 something category) that doesn’t like to get their hands dirty, here's a great link for everything you wanted to know about starting from seed. www.ezfromseedorg Try the top 10 easiest plants first. ‘Hand down a creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see.’
