LOL
I graze in the yard also.
I hope that I can garden every season of my life.

I inherited my grazing from my Dad and my Maternal Grandfather.

My Grandfather would be considered a master gardener today.

He had an acre of land that fed his family and neighbors. His wife, my Grandmother, raised chickens and the best strawberries ever. He used the organic fertilizer from her chickens and the mulched strawberry plants and left over strawberries. He would take his herd of grandkids, my cousins and I on grazing tours of his garden. We learned how to eat fresh raw corn on the cob, tomatoes we picked, red lettuce to go with the tomatoes and other delights. We were not allowed to go on our Grandmother’s strawberry patch. She would have fresh strawberries in big bowl on her kitchen table.
