There are 21 interns in my Master Gardener class. Today, one of them, Lynette Morse a delightful native of South Africa, read a 'gardeners prayer' before lunch. I would like to share it with you and I hope you will find it as inspirational as we did.

Gardeners' Grace

As gardeners we are grateful

- for the sun that grows our grains

- for the soil that nourishes our greens

- for the pollinators that form our fruits

- for the aerators that work the soil for the grass that feeds our meats

-and for the water and clean air that makes all our food possible

And we ask for guidance to do our part in conserving our land

For the sake of others now and yet to come

In the name of all our denominations we pray

Amen
