I am planting seeds this week. Despite the fact that everything seems kind of lame and shallow at the moment. The thing is that the new garden was super-sunburnt on the worse-then-dreadful-weekend. I keep looking at it and feeling a bit defeated. I need to do something.
Planting seems like an okay thing to do. Seeds are all about hope and creation and warmth and goodness and bounty. So I'm all for that. Plant seeds, I say. Or seedlings. Mulch them. Water them. Feed them. Watch good things happen (unless snails eat them), nurture them and it might help (me) a wee bit.

thats a great idea...with so many forests destroyed we all need to think about what affects this has on the enviroment and the wildlife that need it...
ReplyDeleteI too think it's an awesome idea Pip. With so many trees lost and thus so many life giving nature machines gone, it's a beautiful thing to help by planting some of your own...
ReplyDeleteGo you!
very therapeutic, the planting of seeds. amazing how focusing your energy on a tiny seed helps you step back from life. And then they shoot up like little green adorable babies! have fun with your lovely patch
ReplyDeleteShare your love for gardening - a very fine thing to do. Anything that connects us back to nature in a positive way is good right now.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I know what I'll be doing a bit of this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks also for posting such good ways of helping and connecting us with all the good places to get involved. It has been such a help for ideas to relieve the feeling of helplessness a little.
My boy and his mates are having a poker night this weekend, which they do regularly however this time they are donating all the money at the end of the night to the bushfire appeal! Good one for the boys (and girls of course) I think!!
Thanks Pip.
