Our 2026 Garden

Today we planted our very first seeds for our 2026 garden. I absolutely loved getting my hands in the dirt and carefully placing the seeds in. Watering them and praying over them,so they may grow fruitful and abundant and nourish my family. As i was planting the seeds and watching my son play in the yard i began to think of everything i am grateful for and how truly blessed i am.And i thank God everyday for all that i have because it is all through him.I am excited to see where this journey takes me and to be able to use gardening as time with God. This is a new season and we have to plant the seeds now in order to achieve the goals later.

“Let your roots grow down into him,and let your lives be built on him.Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught and you will overthrow thankfulness.” Colossians 2:7

“But the fruit of the spirit is love,joy,peace,forbearance,kindness,goodness,faithfulness,gentleness, and self control.Against such things there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-23

... Read morePlanting a garden is more than just growing fruits and vegetables; it’s a deeply rewarding experience that connects you to nature, spirituality, and personal growth. When I planted my 2026 garden seeds, I didn’t just think about the plants thriving in soil—I reflected on the seeds of faith and patience I was sowing in my own life. Choosing a variety of seeds—organic herbs like basil and cilantro, fresh vegetables such as Roma tomatoes, spinach, kale, and carrots—made me excited for the diverse harvest to come. I began by organizing seeds based on their sunlight and water needs, which helped me plan a garden layout that would optimize growth. It’s essential to start with quality soil and organic garden mixes, as I did with OMRI-listed natural soils, to create the best environment for your plants. One of my favorite moments was the gentle act of placing each seed carefully into the earth, watering it tenderly, and feeling grateful for God’s blessings. This peaceful time in the garden felt like a form of meditation and prayer, an opportunity to nurture both the soil and my spirit. Gardening has become an uplifting way to spend time alone or with family, especially watching my son play nearby—this closeness to nature fosters gratitude and reminds me to celebrate even the smallest growth. The scriptures that I love to keep in mind during this new gardening season, such as Colossians 2:7 and Galatians 5:22-23, serve as spiritual nourishment while I cultivate physical nourishment. They remind me to grow roots of faith and bear fruit aligned with love, joy, and self-control. These virtues are just like the patience and care needed in tending a garden. For those starting their own garden, I recommend labeling each seed category and noting the ideal seed depth and sunlight requirements. This not only helps the garden flourish but also strengthens your connection to the process, making every sprout that breaks the ground feel like a little miracle. Embracing gardening as a practice that feeds the body and soul brings incredible satisfaction. It’s a journey of growth, learning, and hope. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting, planting seeds now sets the foundation for your future harvest, both in the garden and in life.
