As summer ended and fall is here, I've watched my lovely 'getaway' change with the seasons. This is its first Autumn, and the little house is well-constructed and dry and cozy inside, even with the cold, damp weather. The lawn furniture waits patiently inside, propped up against the walls, waiting for Spring.
I'm looking for a small greenhouse now so I can start my seeds in February so they will be 'hardened' and ready to plant in my raised beds by March and April. Gardening is a discipline that requires you to take note of the season, make your lists, and have tasks to perform all year long. As winter approaches, the physical labor of a garden ceases, but the planning and dreaming remain, urging us to the hope of spring and another summer to come.
