Praises Barbara Armitage for gardening on past Labor Day

Writer herself harvested last of tomatoes on November 3, and still has flowers and herbs flourishing

Lois Cunningham writes:
Hurray for you. i have always found it a little crazy for people here in Adair County to abandon their gardens and their flowers on Labor Day. Being from the north where our flowers and gardens don't get going till mid June and are frost nipped by Labor day, I cherish every bloom and every vegetable until it is impossible to get by with not keeping them. Yesterday I picked the last of my tomatoes, but i still have a few flower pots in bloom and the herbs are still flourishing in their pots. I love that you continue to grow things till the last day you can. Keep it up. - Lois Cunningham
