I thought it would be nice to publish a quote now and then (every week sound good?).
I want to keep track of them here. Every time I put up a new quote it will become the “title” of this page, and the old quote will be added to the page itself. Eventually I hope to end up with a long list of great (and the occasional not so great) quotes. I will try to stick as close to the topic of gardening as possible, but I’m sure the rare inspirational, photographic or just plain funny one will sneak on in.
Hope you enjoy them.
