It was summer.
"Our garden looks great," Mom said.
"We'll have lots of vegetables this year!"
Soon the carrots grew.
So did the beans and strawberries.
Then corn and tomatoes started growing.
Every day the family went to the garden.
Every night they ate salad and other vegetables.
They froze some of them.
But there were still more to harvest!
"I'm tired of going to the garden," Harry said.
"Me too," Oliver said.
Dad sighed. "Gardens are a lot of work."
"Mmm!" Mom said. "These vegetables are delicious!"
Everything kept growing.
"What will we do with all of this food?" Oliver asked.
"I know!" Emmy said.
She told everyone her idea.
The kids made a sign.
It said, "Vegetables for sale!
Pick all you can eat!
Pay what you can!"
The kids put the sign outside.
They waited.
Soon people saw the sign.
Lots of people came to the garden.
People picked beans and corn.
They picked tomatoes too.
They put money in a bucket.
"What will we do with the money?" Oliver asked.
"Let's buy a hammock," Dad said.
"Let's go to a baseball game," Harry said.
"I know what to do with the money," Mom said.
"What?" everyone asked.
She smiled. "Buy seeds for next year!"
