I look at life the same way I garden

🌱I grow organically, without pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers, because no matter how much effort it takes, the quality and health matter more to me than the yield.

🌱I let it do its thing and just go support where needed. Yes, I could be more intentional, but I do what I have the capacity for at the moment.

🌱 Y’all might get me for this one, but I don’t mind sharing with the deer and squirrels to a certain degree. I’m here to share, we all live here, but there’s a limit to how much you’re gonna take before I set up barriers. I haven’t applied peppers as a deterrent in a while so the squirrels are getting bold again. I haven’t chased them away, but I’m taking note and will handle it when I’m ready. Always humanely though.

🌱I always do my best to pay attention to the specific needs of each individual plant to get the best results. They’re living things that I want to pour the same energy into me as I give., but even when the expectation isn’t met, assess whether to save or discard, but never just haphazardly. We feed one another, and even if I couldn’t eat you, you’ll be compost and seeds for the future.

🌱I live and let live in regards to predators as long as they keep to their own business and don’t bother myself or anything I’m in charge of protecting.

This post wasn’t about gardening. Water and tend to yours as you please, but this is what works for me😉

As this year winds down and we start planning for our spring garden, don’t forget to tend to the garden that is your life too. I love you 💛

Sometimes you have to play along even when you know how things will turn out. Everything has its purpose...everything has its season...let the ppl, places, and things flow in and out of your life as they're meant to

With love💛
