Have you ever stopped to think about those littles seeds that become the plants you grow and love? A seed is how everything in a garden begins.

This week on Growing a Greener World, we explore the critical mission of growing the next generation of gardeners by instilling a love of gardening in children.
My passion for gardening began when I was a child as it does for many gardeners. The turning point for me came after accidentally breaking off a branch from my parents’ favorite shrub. I panicked and jammed the broken branch into the ground. A few weeks later, I went back to check on it. To my surprise and relief, that branch had taken root. From that moment on, I was hooked on horticulture.
That defining moment was literally life-changing! Whether children discover the magic of plants on their own like I did, or they are taught by an adult, exposing children to gardening at a young age can instill a newfound passion to last a lifetime.

There’s an enormous swell in the number of people learning to garden and grow their own food. Yet, many lack the space for a garden – or so it might seem. This is where unique urban gardens and community gardens can play a big role.
In this episode, we revisit some of the great urban and community gardening heroes that we’ve met in past seasons. These are people who are making gardening more accessible to all – no matter the boundaries or limitations.
We also look at how some urban gardeners have found creative ways to grow fresh food for themselves and others without a garden or soil.

This week, we feature stories that teach us that even in the most challenging times, we can turn to gardening to feed our souls and nourish those around us who are in need.
When the COVID-19 crisis began and the country went on lockdown, “connection” is what many of us missed the most. Visiting family, meeting up with friends, traveling, or even just going to the farmers market – all of that had to be put on hold for the safety of everyone.
We all had more time at home than ever before this year. A lot of people looked to their garden as a refuge and a way to heal their bodies, comfort their hearts, and feed their families. Many even started gardening for the first time.
It’s true that we’re all in this together, but it’s also true that most of us never felt more alone than we did at certain times in 2020.
A beautiful garden
