The Great Dirt Blender


One of my goals this year was to line the brick pathways at the farm with herbs.  As usual, I employed my two favorite assistants--Mamaw and Thomas--to help get the job done.  It was Thomas's job to put a shovel-ful of compost in each hole and mix it with the existing dirt.  He quickly developed his own unique style by spinning the shovel in his hands and making it work like a blender.  We were all quite proud of his innovation.
