Getting Ready To Grow!

During these long winter nights the anticipation mounts.  Only another month and we will start to sow our seedlings.  I really can't wait.  Last year we planted some Zinneas and so I collected hundreds of seeds from the flowerheads.  

We finally completed the Revised Mission Statement for 2025 and one of the new items on the agenda is our Neighbor In Need program. This was in fact inspired from our New Year's Day event when we shared what we wanted to create in 2025.  Kev said he wanted to help beautify the neighborhood by helping people with their lawns.  

Something lit a spark!  Absolutely.  It was so disheartening to have to leave behind our beautiful community garden at the 2223 house, but we can spread some of the love and garden boxes around to our neighbors.  Starting with helping with lawncare, we can also encourage those who want to, to plant some flowers and even veggies.

I am so excited, I can hardly wait to get my seedlings going.  Funny enough, we already have one volunteer tomato who had popped up in an old planter.  I am not sure what I was trying to grow in there, but I know it wasn't a tomato.  Anyway, we will see if this early bird will make it to spring.

One thing I know for sure, if my Zinnea seeds are good, 2025 will be the year of a Zillion Zinneas!
