Mia, my 14 year old gardening daughter, wrote the following when she heard I was asking people to help in the garden.
Poems
By: Mia
Show the person you appreciate
By giving a helping hand
No gifts or money will overcome
The joy of a gardened land.
------------------------------------------------
Happiness comes in many shapes and sizes
But none can overpower the warm, fuzzy feeling
Inside a gardener's heart
When she gives away her flowers
-----------------------------------------------
She warned be this one may seem harsh, but I just had to share it.
I'm willing to share
But let's be fair
I need help with my gardens
Instead of pulling up weeds
I'm gathering seeds
For a garden that's not my own
My garden's a mess
And I'm really stressed
I can't do this work all alone
With a few extra hands
We can weed these gardens to the bone

Marna,
Mia is a great poet!!! I think share and share alike should go for plants and seeds as well as seeds. That way everyone get's a win-win. Besides helping weed your garden benefits all the garderners who now share in your kind offerings but also gardeners for years to come. I will be over to help out Friday morning. See you then.
Fondly,
Jeanne
