The Garden

So, my wife and I are starting a garden. A modest little vegetable garden with two maybe three beds. So far we've got tomatoes, peppers, cucumber, rosemary, lavender and some other stuff planted. 

Why a garden? You I've always been kinda intrigued by gardens and plants. Not so much to make a career out of it but enough to wonder about them. Aside from not eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, God put Adam and Eve in the garden to tend to it and care for it (Gen. 2:15). That was man's only job. So what's up with plants? Can we learn something about God from taking care of plants? Or was it just so we could eat?

I don't know but I've got a garden now and I'll let you know what I stumble on as I tend to it.
