i HAVE BEEN INVITED TO GIVE CLASSES AT BACKYARDS QUITE OFTEN.FAMILIES GATHERED FROM ALL AGES TO LEARN THE PROCESS OF GARDENING AND IMPLEMENT IT RIGHT IN THEIR OWN BACK/FRONT YARD.Here are some samples of a recent Whole family and friends backyard gardening class :
You can do it this Mothers Day and give the GREEN gift of growing healthy food for your loved ones!A gift that lasts and bring the family together at the backyard .
I am so grateful to my mother who was my first teacher in Urban Farming.My tribute for her is to bring her message to all mothers and families so they can nurture and nourish raising happy and healthy families.
Last but not least, it is worth mentioning that 70% of farms in the US are owned and operated by women.Mother Earth nourish our bodies and our mothers nourish our Body-Mind and soul.
Mothers day falls in the SPRING .The season where Mother Earth celebrates by springing flowers out of the Earth and spraying scented the Aromas into the Air .It is of LOVE in the Air..!
Happy Mother Day..to All Mothers!
