In the Spring, at Cloverfield Farm, all the family made gardens and sowed seeds.
Mother sowed pansy seed in a round bed in the side yard. When the little plants came up, she watered them and weeded them and kept the ground soft and fine, so they could grow.
All the time she was tending them, she kept thinking, "How nice it will be to have all these lovely pansies to look at this Summer!"
Father sowed some radish seed in the garden. When the little plants came up, he weeded them and hoed them and kept the ground soft and fine, so the little radish plants could grow.
