Mr and Mrs White are my neighbours. Their house is small but they have a large garden. And they spend many happy hours working on it every day. We all agree the garden is great. While we spend our dollars in the market, the old couple can pick vegetables in their own garden.
Last month, Mr and Mrs White invited most of the neighbours to their garden for an “all-day food festival”. They asked us to bring gloves and arrive early in the morning. We didn't know what would take place.
By 9:00 a.m., there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans and other vegetables. At lunch, there were lots of laughs. We shared a lot of stories. After dinner, we played games. Before we left, Mr and Mrs White gave each of us a shopping bag filled with vegetables. What a great gift!
Of course I loved the green vegetables, but I loved the happy time being with my neighbours more. Mr and Mrs White were so nice that they helped us learn from each other better. Now Mr and Mrs White have a blog about gardening. They teach us to grow vegetables online. And I can't wait to see my tomato plants bear fruit.
