A few years back we lost our beloved pet dog Bear, who was not only our best and dearest friend but also the Vice President of Sunshine here at Atlantic Publishing. He did not receive a salary but worked tirelessly 24 hours a day to please his parents. Bear was a rescue dog who turned around and showered myself, my wife, Sherri, his grandparents Jean, Bob, and Nancy, and every person and animal he met (well, maybe not rabbits) with friendship and love. He made a lot of people smile every day. We wanted you to know a portion of the profits of this book will be donated in Bears memory to local animal shelters, parks, conservation organizations, and other individuals and nonprofit organizations in need of assistance. Douglas & Sherri Brown PS: We have since adopted two more rescue dogs: first Scout, and the following year, Ginger. They were both mixed golden retrievers who needed a home. | Want to help animals and the world? Here are a dozen easy suggestions you and your family can implement today: - Adopt and rescue a pet from a local shelter.
- Support local and no-kill animal shelters.
- Plant a tree to honor someone you love.
- Be a developer put up some birdhouses.
- Buy live, potted Christmas trees and replant them.
- Make sure you spend time with your animals each day.
- Save natural resources by recycling and buying recycled products.
- Drink tap water, or filter your own water at home.
- Whenever possible, limit your use of or do not use pesticides.
- If you eat seafood, make sustainable choices.
- Support your local farmers market.
- Get outside. Visit a park, volunteer, walk your dog, or ride your bike.

Five years ago, Atlantic Publishing signed the Green Press Initiative. These guidelines promote environmentally friendly practices, such as using recycled stock and vegetable-based inks, avoiding waste, choosing energy-efficient resources, and promoting a no-pulping policy. We now use 100-percent recycled stock on all our books. The results: in one year, switching to post-consumer recycled stock saved 24 mature trees, 5,000 gallons of water, the equivalent of the total energy used for one home in a year, and the equivalent of the greenhouse gases from one car driven for a year. |

DEDICATION
To God Be the Glory
Much love and thanks to Mom and Dad. You taught me to appreciate life and the beauty of the earth for its ability to bring forth life. Thanks also to my husband and children for your love, support, patience, and help. Abundant hugs, Wylecia you are a real big sister. In spite of your own colossal project, you were right there with me through mine. Thanks and more thanks to the members of Arverne Church of God. Your prayers and encouragement were just what I needed. Thanks to you, also, Suraj. You helped me keep the garden growing, even when there was no time.

INTRODUCTION
I attribute my love for growing to my father. Many Saturdays while growing up, we watched as he worked. I cannot say that I enjoyed gardening back then; there were too many bugs and that Carolina sun was definitely a scorcher. I would much rather have been inside in an air-conditioned room reading a good book. Saturday afternoon in the yard was not fun.
Today, I value time spent outdoors. I get great satisfaction from growing my own fruits and vegetables and cultivating my own flowers. Now it is my children who wonder what is so exciting about seeing the first tulip buds burst through the winter-hardened ground or why I must make multiple rounds of our yard each day to see what new thing is growing. And they definitely do not understand how I can keep company with the mosquitoes. Perhaps one day they too will discover how invigorating, yet relaxing, the gardening experience can be.
