Mmmm

A good gardener awakes early. Listens to the weather. Checks the news. And while having tea & toast considers what needs to be done today to create a beautiful and bountiful garden in the future.

A good gardener while out and about and doing some of those very  things which will ensure the future garden remains both a delight to look at, pleasant to sit in and productive of home-grown vegetables, enjoys the now: the garden itself, the cycle of nature, the visits of wildlife and the challenges of unpredictable weather. 

Mmmm. Although he/she wouldn't be so bold as to proclaim it, the good gardener has stumbled upon a brilliant approach for business, parenting and life.
