nothing boosts my mood and outlook quite like gardening… something about it… being outside, hands in the dirt… just makes me feel so connected.. and really grounded!
There’s also a bit of hope when planting seeds… something to look forward to. Every day you water and check them and it just is something fun to do really.
I keep all of our seeds in a cute basket such as these and collect seeds from places I go. I also found some great heirloom seeds on amazon!
We also went through our old pots, washed them off a bit and picked some for house plants! A friend of mine has been inspiring me to have more house plants… the other day while at Trader Joe’s I was going to buy a bunch of house plants but then as I was placing them in my cart I realized I had everyone of the plants in my own garden… Our yard is a bit of a jungle in a really cool way.. so why not just dig some plants up and plant into our pots we already have! We have been really talking with our kids about not being wasteful especially in times such as now… conserve everything… water, food, toilet paper..lol!
How are you being conservative with things? The more I think about it and learn from times such as now.. maybe we should always be a bit more careful and conscious of things we buy and use and throw away… I think the earth would love us a little more…
What things are you planting? any new seeds you’re thinking about planting?
