Pat and I have been working on her new garden space for a couple of weeks now, and it’s been quite a journey so far! I have truly loved being a part of her learning experience and watching her eyes widen as she encounters unexpected aspects of gardening. Most of all, she has come to understand first hand, the amount of thought that goes into creating your first garden. I think that, after picking your first homegrown greenbeans, this is one of the most exciting parts! Understanding how plants work and learning about soil – the place from where most of our nutrition comes – brings us closer to nature and our food and is a truly awesome experience.
