Decisions related to gardening.

“Don’t decide to grow a garden.  Decide to become a gardener.  Just go ahead and sign up for the long haul.  This is something that you’re going to do, year after year.  You’re never going to arrive, you’re going to keep learning.”

Imperfect gardens feed you too.


I really like this straightforward take about gardening. Every year will be different, even if you grow the same things all the time and in the same place. To me, being a gardener is a process that includes seasonal cycles, not a goal that has a definitive end.
