Hello world!

  I am very new to the world of blogging.  I love to write, and I hope that  along the way I’ll come across others who want to chat about gardening, current events, philosophical thoughts about life in general.  I feel gardening is a wonderful metaphor for so many experiences that most people encounter in life. I’ll be discussing the politics of food, nutrition and anything I can think of about organic gardening.  I have no real idea of other topics I might be interested in blogging about, this is only a start.  I consider myself a pacifist.  I don’t have any patience or tolerance for racist, sexist or homophobic thinking.  I’ve observed that some of the gentlest and most open-minded people I’ve met are other gardeners, so I thought this would be a good place to begin.  I love the idea of sharing ideas with other people, even if I disagree.  My husband and I live in rural British Columbia with our dogs and cats.
