"When we place ourselves in nature, our thoughts are naturally drawn to God's character and creativity. God designed nature to aid in this process of turning our thought to himself."
~Erin Lynum, "The Nature of Rest"
My little garden brings me such joy. The tiger blush tomatoes are beginning to slow down, but I'm still getting a handful each day. The long beans are flourishing in our heat and humidity. They love the mid to upper 90's we're visiting every day.
But as my favorite farmer recently reminded me, it's past time to plant those fall crops. We saved quite a bit of seed from last year, so I had spaghetti squash and butternut squash seeds to poke into the ground.
I also had one package of beans that never got planted in the spring.
Somehow my eyes are always bigger than my little raised beds, and I don't have enough room to plant everything I want to put into the ground! So, the rattlesnake beans went into the bean beds where I pulled out the bush beans a few weeks ago. Hopefully, we'll get some delicious things to eat before the first frost nips everything in mid-November.
