It all started with one little plant

I come from a mother with an amazing green thumb. Growing up we had more fruits and veggies than we could eat. My favorite was the rhubarb (raw with a salt shaker in a quiet corner of the garden) and the strawberries. Unfortunately, her talent for gardening (and drawing) skipped a generation with me.
In the spring she and her husband invited my kiddos over to plant her garden. They had a great time! When they were finished William came home with a tiny watermelon plant.
Lots of TLC and a couple months later....
and we are eating our own veggies (what the birds don't eat) and loving our garden!
Thanks for the inspiration Mom & Joe.
