Once upon a time there lived a princess in a small village in the Shenandoah Valley. Her name was Autumn. The young princess always had a passion for harvesting plants, flowers, and crops throughout the year. She would find so much joy in her garden.
When the weather was warm she would plant oak trees. When the weather was hot she would plant a variety and an abundance of seeds. When the weather would begin to cool off she would plant strawberries and when the weather became extremely cold she would care for her house plants inside her home. Every year and every season was different of what Autumn would harvest each year.
But Autumn’s philosophy about harvesting and raising cops never changed. Autumn thought that a plant no matter what it was would grow no matter if it were warm hot, chilly, or cold.
