This is a journal, of sorts, of an organic garden in SW Michigan. It is also an opportunity for its writer to vent about much that ails her.

Au revoir
Knipofia uvaria: red-hot poker
We're leaving the farm for a few fun days in the Second City. It's always bittersweet, going "off the rez," especially when the veg garden is producing. Surprises always greet our return.
A city girl who realized upon the birth of her daughter that life is entirely too short to spend on 1/12th of an acre, she now digs up her weeds (usually with a pick) on 5.
