... Read moreAs we adapt to life in Missouri, gardening has become a beautiful hobby that connects us with our new surroundings. Marigolds, known for their vibrant colors and pest-repelling properties, make a great addition to any garden, enhancing both aesthetics and health. In Missouri, summers are filled with warm days perfect for planting and enjoying outdoor family activities. Gardening not only provides a sense of accomplishment but also an opportunity to bond with loved ones as we cultivate our new space together. Our journey from Florida's beaches to Missouri's diverse landscapes is exciting, and we’re eager to document every moment. From sharing gardening tips to exploring local attractions, our summer is set to be memorable! Let's embrace this new chapter and create lasting memories in our new home.
