Report From PIA – August 30
Every gardener knows that a garden is never finished. Some areas of the landscape are often further along than others, however, and each day, month and year brings new challenges and delights.
It’s tempting to look at those parts of the garden where it’s all come together well, and think, “Well, that’s done.” It isn’t. Everything is constantly growing and changing.
It’s also easy to see those unfinished or problematic sections and focus on the work that needs to be done and the troubles involved.
Our lives are like our landscapes: a combination of process and progress. Our challenge is to appreciate them as such… a whole life that’s growing.
The plants are tiny, and more varieties are needed here...not to mention some serious soil amendment with composted manure....
There is work to be done here too, although this part of the garden is pretty well filled... until something dies, anyway.
