Day 7 – Day in
the garden
Today’s foraging
took the form of going through my community garden plot. Although
I’ll write about this elsewhere on the blog, I wanted to include a
day to reflect on the utility of having a community garden right in
the middle of the city in order to provide fresh produce for families
like mine. Although I work hard at maintaining my garden, it remains
a place of refuge and foraging for my daughter, my partner, and I. We
find delicious food here, and today I made up a little ratatouille
from the zucchini, eggplant, and heirloom tomatoes that I’ve grown
this year.
In this case, I’ll
let my three year old daughter offer her feedback: “You’re a good
cook, Daddy! Soooooooo tasty! I like it!”
You just can’t
argue with that.
