Edward Huse, Artist, in the garden in Spring, item 1,

Here we see my all-time favorite cat, the accomplished Huntress, Miss Kitty - she was allowed to rest in the seedlings because she was such a good cat.
This image is of my recent hand-pulled drypoint engraving, from a drawing of MK that I made several years ago, it is on display during May of this year, at the Howe Library, in Hanover, New Hampshire.

According to the older neighbors, the folks who lived here for half of the last century brought a cartload of horse manure to spread out every Spring and now the fine rich black topsoil is a foot and a half thick and we can grow anything that has enough time to mature in the short New England growing season.
One neighbor told us that during WWII, everyone in the neighborhood cultivated food crops all over, treating the whole of the lawn as a garden from property line to property line, imagine!
