Spring is in the air and the trees are full of beautiful green leaves! Although yesterday we experienced some different weather for the month of May…SNOW…it is that time to think about planting your garden. Years ago I planted a garden. Took me forever to plant it and then nothing grew! After that experience, I figured I was not cut out to plant a garden. Then one year my Dad was sick and unable to plant the garden by himself so I offered my physical labor if he would tell me where to plant and what to do. The first thing he said is wait for the moon to be in the right phase. 
I was blown away! I didn’t think my parents belived in the power of the moon – especially for their garden. On the best moon days of the month we planted the garden and it turned out fabulous! Twelve years later my husband and I are still using the Moon Phases to plant the garden with a bounty crop every year. The times to plant this month are May 9th & 10th, the BEST time of the month is 17th & 18th and another good time to plant is 26th & 27th. Happy gardening!
