Mindful gardening helps me savor the present moment. After divorcing my garden, I moved back to Bethlehem, Pa. where I dig around town and find that a strong sense of place sparks meaning in small moments.
I lost one garden and gained four: I grow herbs and houseplants in my window, shady ornamentals in my apartment courtyard, sun-loving flowers and shrubs at CoWork 414, vegetables and a pollinator patch at the NCC East 40 Community Garden (and contributed to a spiritual outdoor space in Mexico).
Stories of landscape architecture in Pennsylvania & beyond
As an architectural writer, I respond to the need for storytelling in landscape design. Each outdoor space tells a story. Together we can find it.
Living in Austin and having a garden plot of around 5-700 sq. ft., we can garden in the winter. Still, nothing is easy, but some things are worth the labor. That’s how I feel mindful.
