Jen, how big of a "garden" do you have? My EX's parents, awesome people, had a 1 acre garden. And my relatives in Indiana have similar.
William, how are you doing? Jen's words speak volumes and show much more than you want to admit. I can hear your struggles in you words, so no need to share if you don't desire. It doesn't take a brain scientist to know you're hurting and whether or not I know the extent of what you're dealing with, GOD knows. So I talk to My Heavenly Father (pray) and ask to bless you and take care of you, and God does the rest.
We call utilizing every nook and cranny being efficient. I used to have garden for a small yard. So I cheat and walk to the produce stand nearby or the farmer's market which is a little further just as I did w/ my Mom. Both have been there all my life.
You and Jen are deeply in my prayers.
God bless my brother William sister Jen
Much love
Your brother Nathan
My Parents-in-Law was the same. They had a huge garden up in Western Maryland. It was a combination of vegetables and flowers. It was amazing!
