Deciding to garden this year has been the best decision I could’ve made. Now, instead of being sad that we can’t travel for who knows how long (years?), I’m excited to be home and to watch things grow. Gardening at altitude is a lot of work, and we are not going to get a vast amount of food out of our container garden, but it feels like doing something, and watching food emerge from tiny seeds I planted still feels like magic. It’s not too late to start growing something yourself, even if it’s just one small pot of herbs on a windowsill! 🌱
I may not be able to go outside much, and I might be alarmed by how close the neighbors all seem comfortable getting to one another, but at least I can create my own magic. Anything green that grows from a seed is creating something out of nothing, and feels like magic, even though I know it’s not. These microgreens are one of the many things I’ve grown lately, and in my stories today, I show you how to grow your own without buying a lot of stuff.
