Garden design begins inside your home.

Pretty views into the garden.
Science is catching up to the microbes swirling in gardens and their necessity to our beneficial gut bacteria, and skin.
You thought it was nice outside, open the door?

Instead, DNA, pushing for survival.

A nice day? Hardly, Providence smiles.

Providence smirks. Your agenda is a pretty garden. Instead, done to historical template (aka Garden Design formula), property value increases, HVAC decreases, maintenance reduced, pollinators fed not killed, no fertilizers/chemicals poisoning groundwater/killing soil microbes, physical health is better, mental health is stronger.

Pics early last summer with Laura, conceived & born in my garden. Of course she moved inside.
I was just wondering how many people put their probiotics next to the anti-bacterial cleaner in their shopping cart.
ReplyDeleteHaving just visited Whole Foods today and replenished our super probiotics I'm wishing I was still young enough to get down on my knees in the garden. I'm not even able to use the gardening stool anymore so it's all bend over time and pull weeds and no wonder the weeds flourish here. But coming from at least 3 generations of farmers and nurserymen maybe there's still good stuff in my system as I never get sick.
ReplyDeleteDo you know the old David Grayson books, Tara? And of course the Beverley Nichols ones, but the Grayson books (a nom de plume) exemplify the soul and body health of a farmer/gardener.
And your gardening hats by the door picture illustrates your theme beautifully.
LOVE the HAT upper right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGoing into the garden today!
