Today’s featured Ada Icon Veggie Garden belongs to Ann Donnelly Hamilton and Loren Hamilton (off working), and their children Grady (age 8) and Morgan (age 2).
Grady and Morgan boast that they did most of the work preparing, planting, and maintaining their garden on North Main.
According to Ann, “Grady has been reading a book on Botany this summer to understand more about how the seeds grow.
"This is the third year for their garden, but they have added additional plants this year during the Covid-19 pandemic including eggplant, Brussel sprouts, onions, green peppers along with their annual favorites tomatoes and cucumbers.
The squirrels continue to enjoy their strawberries!”
