Last weekend my boys accompanied me as I visited two of the urban garden's from the Seattle Tilth's annual Garden and Chicken Coop tour. Last night a neighbor invited us to explore her yard. Each of of these gardens were amazing. Small pathways through the residential landscapes make marvelous places to explore.
The boys are careful as they have grown up planting their own little patches. Even so- they skip with glee and leapfrog from stone to stone whenever they can. It is clearly a wonderful experience to follow a path and see to what treasure it will emerge from raspberry patch to pea vine.
As I am researching for next week's Nature Playgroup with a focus on Seeds, I found the Magnuson Garden's Website. It sounds wonderful. It is outside our typical radius, but I hope to visit it. It is near one of the most magnificent community gardens ever! Just the description of it inspires me to add to our own family garden.
