Seasonal Record

2026 my grandpa had a full gully full of edible things, he loved to garden. I tried for multiple years to bring home his rasberries and make them grow here. They weren’t for it. It wasn’t until I aquired a few from a sweet lady here in town that I was able to grow them in my own garden. This year I neglected them. I didn’t get anything to harvest this year. But they are still alive and next sprig they will get the TLC they need to give me future abunce so that I can make at least one, one, bottle of jam.
