What a adorable female parent - girl story about transitioning a cutting garden into a recurrent garden . Thanks to Ann McCormick for sharing this story with us !
" On the shores of White Fish Lake in Pine River , Minnesota , Barbara Austin , 92 year old mother of 15 , incline her summer garden with the assist and quislingism of girl Louise . The plan this summertime has been to reorient the garden from a curve garden to a more recurrent one . This is to reduce alimony . Herds of deer frequent the arena but Barbara and Louise have been able to keep them at bay with bounteous doses of milorganite and liquid fence- so far . The colorful and fragrant blooms with the lake in the background have made her property a ' feast for the heart ' . "
