For several years, my Grandma, who is 94 years old has sung A Bushel & A Peck to me every time I leave her house. I don’t remember her singing it to me as a child, but I know that it’s become something I expect to hear when I visit her. Granted she only knows the first few lines of the song, and I’ve always asked what the rest of the words were, but she couldn’t remember. I thought for Mother’s Day this year I would do something special for her and create this A Bushel & A Peck Printable for her to hang in her room. I know it will mean a lot to her.
I wanted to share it with all of you as well. I’ve kept the design simple because my Grandma can’t read print very well anymore. There are four color choices to choose from, I hope you enjoy.
Click below on the color you want and print away!
These would make cute gift tags for Mother’s Day too on a cute package!
The printable is Sweet but it got even Sweeter as I read the sentiment behind it!! 🙂

Just Pinned it 🙂
How incredible of you to share not only the touching story of your special tradition with your Grandmother but the printable. Thanks much!!!
I think I will paint a canvas then mod podge the printable.
My grandpa used to sing this song to me too! Thanks for sharing.
I’ve never “met” anyone who knew that song-my grandma who is 82 has always sung that to me. I love it and will cherish this printable-thank you!!!
My mom and I used to sing this. I always thought she made it up!! Thank you for the printable I will be framing and giving it to mom on Mother’s Day.

I love this. Is there any way you could take out the “and” before the 2nd “a barrel and a heap”? I’d love to put this in my son’s room, but I think he’d notice it’s not the way I sing it.
This is so sweet, Rebecca! Featuring you at Printable Decor today.
Thank you! This is so great! I sing this to my 3 year old every night as I put him to bed. My mom used to sing it to me, too! I think I’ll print it out and hang it over his bed.
I am so excited about this!!! The night my husband proposed he took me to see Guys and Dolls (the musical this song is from). Since then he has sung this to me over and over again and now we sing it to our daughters. Everyone is getting a print out of this!!!
