a visit from the seed fairy

sorry folks, no cake today but we did have a visitor. david and i had an opportunity to give a tour of the demo garden to monika mccurdy. she is a representative from ferry-morse seed company, the oldest and largest seed company in the country. it seems that she found us on the internet while searching for information on raised bed gardens for a project that the fmsc is building at their kentucky headquarters. what better garden to look at for examples could she have chosen-absolutely none!!!

the junior master garden is 4 large raised beds and behind them is the herb garden which is a series of small raised beds and the enabling garden-a raised table garden.

of course no tour is complete without learning all about our rain garden

the hibiscus shrubs will be removed and the area will become our new vegetable garden. many of the seeds monika brought us will be used in the vegetable garden!

just a small portion of the seeds that the seed fairy left us!!! thank you again monika and ferry-morse, please come visit us again and see what sprouts in the garden!
