  • Fall has arrived!  Enjoy the subpages under this tab to learn more about fall and winter gardening.  ​

    "For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. 
    For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad."
    -   Edwin Way Teale


    "I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house. 
    So I spend almost all the daylight hours in the open air.
    -  Nathaniel Hawthorne

    "I love the fall.  I love it because of the smells that you speak of; and also because things are dying,
    things that you don't have to take care of anymore, and the grass stops growing."
    -  Mark Van Doren


    "Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."
    -  Albert Camus


    "Spring flowers are long since gone.   Summer's bloom hangs limp on every terrace. 
    The gardener's feet drag a bit on the dusty path and the hinge in his back is full of creaks."
    -  Louise Seymour Jones

    "Autumn - the reprieve from Summer."
    -  Mike Garofalo, Pulling Onions
