Salad days are here! Above you see my tiny vegetable garden. It's been so nourishing to put it together. When my kids were small, I grew vast amounts of food....row crops, big runs of tomatoes, dairy animals, and small fruit trees.
Lots of work, you say? Add three sons to the mix, and you begin to glimpse the immense nature of what I am still working to get into order. Building, managing, coping...I really don't know how I did it! To much, too far, too many...Nature has her say, here, and I do what I can to respond. This is a different time.
And that's a good thing!
Now, the fruit trees are huge and the garden is tiny. I am growing peas, chard, beets, cabbage, tomatoes, basil, potatoes, and spinach, all in this little space above. The white pompoms in the photo are onions going to seed. There will be as much as I can eat, with extra. Right now it's also transplanting season, when I thin out the plants and put some of them into the small planter boxes I am using. No gophers!
This is the first year for a long time that I am growing vegetables. The change in scale is very refreshing. I'm gaining fresh insights about life from working at a different level. It doesn't take a whole lot of effort to keep it going, so I can really enjoy it.
On the right is the compost maker. It has two chambers, creating usable soil in short periods of time. I'm really enjoying the cycle of taking food and garden scraps and using them to create more food!
I'm taking the time to be with the things I love, every day.
