I have found, through years of practice, that people garden in order to make something grow; to interact with nature; to share, to find sanctuary, to heal, to honor the earth, to leave a mark. Through gardening, we feel whole as we make our personal work of art upon our land.
Of all the wonderful things in the wonderful universe of God, nothing seems to me more surprising than the planting of a seed in the blank earth and the result thereof.
Even the smallest landscape can offer pride of ownership not only to its inhabitants but to its neighbors. The world delights in a garden. . . . Creating any garden, big or small, is, in the end, all about joy.
Deep within each one of us lies a garden.
