Its getting to be that time of year to start sowing  the seeds of love into the ground in order to enjoy a little harvest in the summer before the heat kicks in.  If your fortunate enough to have an avid gardener as a neighbor that starts things indoors for you this will work too.

There are so many benefits of gardening. Family and Community Gardens foster feeling of connection, not only with your people but with your plants. Gardening can give you a sense of empowerment. Nothing screams empowerment more than watching something grow from seed while also giving you a creative calm.

You will also need to take care of yourself while gardening. Gardening invites you to get outside and take charge of your own need for exercise, healthy food and beautiful surroundings. If your digging and harvesting your immune system benefits form all of this. It is also so good for your mental state, your heart and your health.

Life is a garden so DIG IT.
