Ownership or adoption

When one sets out to purchase ornamentation for their garden, it should be noted that should you wish to have a lawn gnome be part of your collection, coming to acquire one of these creatures traditionally means an adoption rather than a purchase. According to folk lore dating back many centuries, these little garden keepers were free spirits roaming the Earth to and fro - not for ownership, but adoption by humans. If you're looking for a plentiful harvest or needing luck with something else, adopting lawn gnomes might be the perfect addition to your collection.
