Sideways Learners Will Understand

If you are a sideways learner you will understand.

.

I have college degrees, international studies for decades, landscape seminars attended for more decades, a garden that followed the complete template disaster-passable-magazines-tv.  Client gardens with the same trajectory.

.

All of the above merely taught me amusements in/from a landscape/garden.

.

Not considering learning anything, in the least, about landscaping/gardening, I got some chickens.

.

Chickens were my front door to truly learning about gardening/landscaping.  Who knew?

.

What was the big take away?

.

Stewardship.

.

Literal & metaphor.

.

Decades of striving, and the hens taught by merely being themselves.

.

Humbling.

.

With great pride, I want you to see where I keep my egg basket, above.  At the back door.

Garden & Be Well,   XO Tara
