Daily Postcard: Saint Fiacre Watches Over Local Garden

Saint Fiacre watches over a garden of chives, garlic and alyssum on Friday in White Rock. St. Fiacre (c. AD 600-670), the priest, abbot, hermit, and gardener, was known for his sanctity and gift for curing infirmities. He emigrated from his native Ireland to France, where he constructed for himself a hermitage together with a vegetable and herb garden, oratory, and hospice for travelers. He is the patron saint of gardeners, herbalists and various infirmities. Photo by Shari Mills
