Two Rows for Grandmother

My grandfather plants everything from asparagus to zucchini in the family garden. However, my grandmother’s favorite thing is zinnias, so he plants two rows for her every year. Both friends and family come each day to pick and enjoy the harvest. It is a great place to socialize and catch up with everyone. I especially enjoy the garden because I help pick okra and other vegetables to sell and make money for a car when I turn 16. My grandfather’s garden is a great place to get delicious veggies, see old friends and make new ones.
