These "cole" crops form the backbone of the fall garden. Kohl is the German word for cabbage; thus we have "cole slaw." The cole crops like cold weather :)
What will we have to harvest at the end of our gardening season? Some kindness, some mindfulness. And perhaps a few other qualities that failed to sprout or take root?
Meditate now while your growing season is still warm and vibrant. The change of seasons comes too soon.
Meanwhile, i'm mindfully cooking up a batch of cabbage soup today to ward off the cold.
* Brassica comes from the Celtic word bresic meaning "cabbage."
