Day 20 - Garden Bounty

My tomato plants did well this year, but harvest time has arrived and I don't have time to can or process all of them. We've been eating BLTs morning, noon, and night.

How fun to discover that I can share the produce from my garden with a neighbor or friend - or even a local food shelf.

Perhaps you don't have a vegetable garden, but you have some flowers. Could you cut a few and give them to someone?

Or if you don't have a yard at all, do you have a little potted plant you could divide and share?

Or if you have perennials that can be divided in the fall - consider asking a few friends if they'd like some for starting in their own garden.

If none of those options are possible for you, you can still buy a bunch of daisies to give someone. Growing things make wonderful gestures of kindness!
