Brigadoon and Basil

It happened.I move to a retirement home and out of the concrete rose the gorgeous community garden of my dreams. Eighteen raised beds with a wash stone path between each one. In addition, a hose and faucet for EACH garden. I must be dreaming. The entire garden is about 1/2 mile from my apartment, so I can walk there several times a day....and I do. Four of the beds are organic and the others are conventional. This is not ideal but it honors the elders and that is the way it should be.I am learning lots from them.
