Lettuce and herbs can be grown for their beauty as well as for the practical use, as shown in this display at Olbrich Garden.
That’s lovely!
That’s a stunning garden.
Where is that (ie, what region of the country?)
I am so ready for Spring!
That’s a great post, Diana! Fritz Haeg is doing good work. During the times to come, most of the HOA busybodies will be out of business. Here’s a quick anecdote about one of my employers of the ‘90s. He owned a large, old store with huge front windows. The store was a write-off, as he wanted it that way while waiting for his grown son to grow up and run it.
Me: Some people asked us to post these little advertisements for their horse show.
Boss: No. Any other business takes money that our business could have.
And that attitude is present in every locale in our country. Here’s a flashback to the ‘70s.
Me: Boss, why are we buying tools from a competitor for our customers, when we have the same wholesale source and discount?
Boss: Because competition makes the business environment healthier. That’s how we do it in America.
Friends, grow those victory gardens. Teach some of those grubby, greenie young folks in your neighborhood, while you’re at it. It’s something that you can have in common...something to start with.
