Why Garden?
I suspect the answer to that question may
be different for each of us. I grew up in a city and lived in an
apartment as a child. I remember going to visit my aunt and uncle every
summer who lived in Michigan. They had a small hobby farm, complete
with a big red barn and a haymow, apple trees for climbing and a large
organic garden with compost pile. At the age of seven, I was set down in this space and taught to pull weeds. It was all so amazing-- tomatoes growing on vines, zucchini squash, carrots and strawberries! From that came a lifelong love of gardening and growing my own whenever possible. So now, being retired and living in an apartment, I jumped at the chance to join a community garden. --Deborah G.
