My name is Carol. I am a mom, wife and small town medical provider. Our family is committed to following the Lord as He leads us. We come from Methodist, Mennonite, Messianic Gentile and other Christian experiences. Ours is a mismatched, odd-looking faith, but meaningful to us as we strive to follow the Spirit's lead. Our arms are open to all with love and acceptance. Our family is not a neat cookie cutter anything, and our life looks messy most of the time, but we struggle on with hope.

How does your garden grow?

I will not be jealous of your garden....but you asked ..."how does your garden grow?" Mine is empty...nada...nothing this year.
Hi Carol! Wow, your garden looks great, I love the hoop houses! You probably have to deal with lots of critters wanting to share your produce, don't you? The evergreen trees in the background make my heart happy...I can just smell them from that photo! I think my Michigander's heart has never left me...we had a cabin in northern MI where we spent our summers each year when I was growing up, and I just long for the thickness of God's green woods. Nice work! My garden seems to be okay, we struggled with a fungus on the roses (caused by crabapples that I hate) but they are recovering. I have a raised veggie bed at my friend's house, tomatoes and beans and carrots, mostly, plus a zucchini (sp?)...just one! We got a quarter-side of beef a week ago, so it's now in the freezer, and when the veggies start producing next month, my grocery store trips can slow down...can't wait for that!

Not my season :)
Hi Carol, nice to see you blogging. I like the little green houses, not complicated.
