We are busy at the Gardens of Spring Meadows. The seedlings are growing and we are looking forward to a bountiful harvest this summer. Some of the baby seedlings have moved from the nursery to the next step up\u2014larger pots. It's fun to watch them grow.<\/p>\n

Why do we do it?<\/h2>\n

We like knowing that our food comes fresh from the garden, grown in an environment without harsh chemicals. It's worth the work!<\/p>\n
