I wish to put a plaque on the front of my shed of the Patron
Saint of Vegetable Growing.

But which Saint is it?

Ed

Saint Adelard is the patron saint of gardeners, Saint Fiacre is
patron saint to those growing foods and herbs and Saint Isidore is
patron saint to farmers. You'll have to make the appropriate
personal choice.

Saint Fiacre is also patron saint to taxi drivers and venereal
disease suffers if this helps at all with your decision making.

Val

Or there's St. Anthony, the Patron Saint of lost causes. ;-))
