I loved coming across this post @freemotherearth! I am such a big supporter of food being our medicine and I am in full belief that we all should/could be growing our own organic, heirloom foods! What a great inspiration you are to show that where there is a will there is a way and just because something isn't going exactly as planned, doesn't mean to give up!
I wish you the very best with your garden and it looks like you're going to have an abundance of delicious goodies right outside of your door in no time! <3
