This summer my family has been blessed with the opportunity to teach our kids about gardens. My husband took them to plant the garden, check on it and pick from it. I've gotten to teach them how to wash veggies, snap "snap beans", shell butter beans, etc.
It's been really fun. And it has reminded me a lot of hanging out with my grandparents and their garden. Snapping green beans, shelling butterbeans and silking the corn. Riding our big wheels and bikes up and down dusty dirt roads. Driving my Papa's white two door car, with red velty interior through a creek to get to his garden patch.
Fun to remember, fun to teach and fun just to enjoy.
We're enjoying our green beans cooked for about 5-10 minutes and then add a dab of butter.
