Paradise in a P-Patch
A happily traveled path trough a city of perfectly divided plots of heaven. This is Picardo Farm, Seattle’s original community garden. 
The term P-Patch is specific to Seattle and where the “P” in P-Patch is actually for Picardo, not pea. For a complete listing and map of Seattle’s 83 public P-Patches as well as a history lesson, see http://www.seattle.gov/neighborhoods/ppatch/ You’ll also find links to great resources like http://www.urbangardenshare.org/, a website dedicated to bringing communities and neighbors closer together by uniting gardeners with private land owners to share garden space and share the rewards.

A break at the Arboretum
Last Sunday I took a break from the veggie patch to take in the beauty of spring in the Arboretum. This has nothing to do with growing vegetables but here are some shots from Seattle’s greatest garden.
