Autumn equals harvest time in the Northern Hemisphere.
As the daughter and granddaughter of farmers, I’ve been paying attention to the seasons all of my life. Much depends on seasons and weather when growing crops and animals. And while my farming has dwindled to a tiny plot of garden – planted with hope every spring – I still pay attention.
Canada recently celebrated their Thanksgiving holiday. The United States will follow in late November. This is truly a time to reflect on the harvest — one farmer grows more than enough to feed his family. The abundance in the grocery store — with produce bins full of bright seasonal fruits and vegetables, a variety of mead and dairy products available, and frozen and canned foods available without the hours of prep work.
Abundance! Give Thanks!
