A Stitch in Time…..Wow, Approaching Mid-Summer!

Well I don’t think I remember that my family ever celebrated Mid-Summer, but since living here in Maine, I recognize it as a real important day, because the sun begins to turn up the heat…so we will always remember its importance!! The official date is August 6th, but as a gardener, I measure time by plant growth and how they are responding to the daytime temperatures. So I have always felt July was the halfway mark for their successes. I have not been this serious or absorbed as I have become over the last few years, when The Red Fence Garden Plan became instrumental in my personal growth!!

Now I realize that this has become a year round relationship that soothes me, feeds me, guides me, and helps me reach further and further into a better future through the Work we live for here. Even after some trimming here and there, we grow even taller, branching out in all directions. So much rain so far has insured great successes for all things growing, including ourselves. Each day provides us with beauty, fragrance, joy, peace, and quiet sanctuary to write, breathe and contemplate , creatively building new World changes.

The plants are yielding themselves to being snipped here and there for making oils and tinctures that will be shared and used for healing. The flowers and fruits and vegetables have been bountiful in so many ways, and we in turn give them our hearts!! Welcome July to our world!

As always Clarity Artists capture the true essence of our Garden Plan, enjoy!!
