So, as many of you guys know, this weather is absolutely crazy! It's been high 70's all week. I mean it feels so much like summer, I went to the beach to tan the other day! So, spring/summer weather means... PLANTS! Yes, I've already started my plants inside, and they are thriving. There really is nothing more beautiful than bright green seedlings after a fairly brown winter.
Okay, yea it sounds kind of lame, but I really love seeing these little plants grow. It is so hopeful. A total promise of spring and life. Also, it is very stabilizing in times like these. To see something thrive and grow means that there are at least a couple things still right in this world (*wink*).
Here's what I have started this year:
On the left: Wildflower mix, Blanket flower mix, Foxglove On the right: Large salad tomatoes |
On the left: Cucumber On the right: Basil, Cherry tomatoes |
On the left: Basil, Cherry tomatoes Middle: Blanket flower mix On the right: Cilantro, sage |
I feel so powerful growing my own food. Resourceful. This is an easy way to "rebel" or stand up to mainstream companies who poison our food and destroy the land and ocean. Also, it's so much healthier! I love the feeling of being able to go straight to the garden and harvest fresh tomatoes or cucumbers. Or step out and pick some fresh herbs for an omelet.
When I first heard this song I thought the lyrics were "Are we human? Or are we dancers?"...
Happy Monday :)
Peace.
