Sage Advice

     A visit to a delightful garden brought me some "sage" advice.  Howard and Ann Sage shared their artistic impressions with some fellow gardners on a hot day in August.  In spite of the drought and heat their garden was green and fruitful.  I found tomatoes, beans, squash, and herbs growing in well mulched and watered beds.  The plants all looked healthy and happy and ......deliciously Yummy!



     Ann shared with visitors her love of collecting unusual art work to hang in the garden.  Howard shared how a visit to the Morris Arboretum sparked his interest in outdoor G trains.  His passion chugs along through all the plants and garden ornamentation.  I found their home a great place to gather "sage" advice for one's gardening journey.  Choo, choo!

Berksmont News: Serving Berks County

"On The Way to Cape May"......
Yes, we sang as we drove and we stopped along the way.  I had been wanting to visit this nursery in Franklinville ever since Lorrarine (the owner) came to speak at one of our garden club meetings.  She is a delightful person, always willing to share her wisdom and tips for the garden.  She knows tons and tons about herbs and I hope to post a link to one of her articles in the near future.  In the meantime, here is a link to the article I wrote in The Community Connection about her wonderful nursery.  My husband and I and another couple were on our way to a weekend in Cape May and I talked them all into stopping at Triple Oaks.  It was worth it.  I purchased 2 Rosemary plants that I hope will be hardy enough to winter over in my garden shed.
