Seven Acres of Ironbound

There are some people who find gardening to be a very relaxing hobby. I am not one of those people, I was born and raised in the city. The closest to a farm that I have ever been is at the supermarket. But I will admit, I like the produce section. and I like picking Fresh fruit and vegetables. Everybody in my family has a green thumb, with plants growing on their window seals. I was not born a green thumb. But as life would have it, I am working in two gardens on the 7 acres of ironbound. And since the house and property is owned by my wife's uncle whose nick name is Shady I like referring to the place as the shady rest. It is here on the seven acres of ironbound, that I work with a tractor. And refer to myself as Farmer Bob.
