I have dozens of varieties of vegetable, flower and herb seeds on the way; about a dozen or so fruit trees (all the usual suspects plus a few trendier ones like medlar and quince); and more berry bushes than I can count. There will be chickens. There will be mushroom logs. There will be bees. Way more than one girl can do on her own. My vision is this: we garden together, at my house …

We have become an urbanized consumer culture that lives increasingly hooked and dependent upon technology and mechanization. The quiet wisdom that comes from rural life and religious or indigenous practice that plants us in the soil of the earth and her peoples, is often run over in the frenetic pace of our lives.
