Hello, Gatherers If anyone has started the previous project please share or comment below, remember you don’t need everything figured out, you don’t need a perfect set up! You just need to plant the seed. Remember growth doesn’t come from waiting it comes from beginning. Here a small update on my process growing flowers for this season.

Aka “Queen of The Night Plant!

Good morning, Garden Gatherers with the snow falling here in my city of Philadelphia I was taking a pause and slowing things down. Nature is reminding me that rest is just as important as growth. Even though we may not be outside in the soil, this is still a beautiful time to stay connected to our garden in other ways. - you can continue to plan what you wish to grow this season - Organize your seeds - or sit with a drink to reflect on your gardening goals.

In zone 8 things are just starting to wake up, buds are swelling, soil is getting softer the light is stretching a little longer each day! and maybe you to (wink) This is your reminder that you don't need to rush just because the season is changing! for you is time to prep raised beds, pots etc. Direct sow cool season seeds and plan tomatoes and cucumbers, but is also time to rest, breathe, move slowly and be present!!
