Your Backyard Bonanza

*Flower1* *Flower2* *Flower3*

THE GARDENING LIFE
(or The Backyard Bonanza)

Turn the soil
Plant the very smallest seeds
Water them daily

Hoe the weeds
Do not cut the seedlings
Wipe your brow

Irrigate them deeply
Cover the soil with mulch
Again, hoe weeds

Tie the vines
Spray for the tiny buggies
Water some more

Harvest the fruits
Fry, steam, or boil perfectly
Enjoy the flavors

Cut the stalks
Mulch all the green parts
Start all over

*Flower1* *Flower2* *Flower3*
