Seeker of the Four Winds: a Galatia Novel
“The well had been dug. Any spare time I had, which was damn little, I spent on the finishing touches like shutters, cupboards, and elevated beds for the family. The Penn House, as we liked to call it, sat a mile outside of the city. I had already worn a trail between my house and the city.
A group of skilled Commoners showed me how to farm with the tools available in this world—no big machinery like I was accustomed to in the bunker. But before long I had a magnificent garden going and was incr...easing field capacity every day. My willingness to share the bounty meant there was no shortage of volunteers to help me with the planting and harvests. Thanks to the gift God had given me, the community was already enjoying my first crop of corn, beans, muskmelon, and various varieties of lettuce. The apple trees I had planted would not produce fruit this season or next, but the saplings in the orchard looked healthy and strong.
I was most excited about the pumpkins.
We weren’t able to justify the space needed to grow them in the bunker.MoreLess
