He released the swan that’s hooked to a net and momentarily held him in his arms and felt his heartbeat gradually calming,then the swan wrapped his neck to his.
How precious it is to feel the trust of an animal.

In 1910, Mare Samuella Cromer, a rural schoolteacher in South Carolina, organized a girl's tomato club so females aged 9 to 20 could “not learn simply how to grow better and more perfect tomatoes, but how to grow better and more perfect women.” Soon, there were tomato clubs in a number of states. The idea was simple: Teach rural girls how to plant and grow tomatoes, then harvest and can them, and sell them for a profit. The only work the girls didn't do themselves was the plowing of their individual 1/10th acre plots.

In one notable example, a girl harvested 2,000 lbs. of tomatoes. After sales, she earned a profit of $78 (about $2,470 today). This was *real* money for girls who came from hardscrabble backgrounds.

In 1915, one tomato club girl was quoted as saying the work was “long and sometimes tiresome...It has been a way by which I could not only have my own spending money and pay my expenses at the Farm Camp, but I also have a bank account of sixty dollars." (About $1,881 today.)

My Love of Flowers!

At a small age my grandmother had iris and lily of the valley growing on the side of the house and in the back a grape arbor. There was also a giant lilac bush with a snowball bush next to it where I spent many hours playing under them.

At the age of six I started planting zinnias and a vegetable plot. Every place I’ve lived I’ve planted flowers and vegetables but eighteen years ago I got serious and took the Master Gardener Program through the University of Missouri and have been active learning and teaching about gardening.

Now that I’m out in the country and as a Master Gardener gardening organically and composting, I wanted to share my love of flowers with others so that’s how Geri’s Flower Farm has come about. 2018 was my first year and after much research I planted a lot of cut flowers that we sold at the Farmers Market in Kearney, Mo and direct at the farm. Some of the annuals that we had were old favorites like snapdragons, the new zinnias, cosmos, verbena, sunflowers and lots more.

The perennials were oriental lilies, peonies, roses, black eyed susans, dahlias etc. At Kearney we had individual flowers and bouquets made up to take home.
