Musings of an organic gardener in Cincinnati
Nature—and everything it encompasses—IS my religion. So, yes, I feel responsible for helping Mother Earth.
While I don’t think my generation or the next one or the one after that can fix all the wrongs we’ve done to Mother Earth, I do think that my generation and the next and the next must all do our part to help.
In addition to our lovely yard and garden, my husband and I also have a decent-sized koi pond. Right now, we have two big fish and a number of baby koi. We used to have six big fish but, over the last fall and winter, two died and two disappeared. Say what you want, but the fish have different “personalities” and, while I’m not exactly attached to them, it is sad when they die/disappear. Darcy, who was my favorite, is buried in the garden—NOT the vegetable garden—so he’s giving back in a way.
