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 |
