What is your favorite part of Gardening?

For me, it is two things. The MIRACLE that a tiny seed has everything in it to grow a plant. Just add water and dirt! ;)

Secondly, it's finding (through trial and error) all of the seed varieties that are right for your Zone, right for what you like to cook or can and almost always RELIABLE. I think that's going to be more and more important as we go further in our quest for self-sufficiency.

OK, one more thing. I LOVE how Spring makes me FEEL. Hopeful, ALIVE and ready to put all the blood, sweat and tears into growing food and flowers for me and mine - all over again...when I swore it all off after the first hard freeze! ;)

Added bonus: learning to use my unheated greenhouse to start plants earlier and make them produce longer into the Fall.
