I agree that teaching our youth where food comes from must become the new normal. Now, many more schools are starting gardening programs which is great to see. I wish I had that when I was in school!

My mom had me in the garden from the time I could walk. Some of my earliest memories are in that dirt. It wasn't until after 2000 that I started seeing schools, outside Montessori, have school gardens.
I bet it was awesome for your immune system to grow up with your hands in the soil. Gotta love those awesome microbes!
That is also why I don't get sick but once a year now, I'm a farmer, so my immune system is rocking. plus being a mild hermit helps keep the germs at bay.
Haha, but we have lots of plant friends! I definitely talk and sing to my plants. :)
