As a lover of garden or green spaces I find it very fascinating to decorate my compound with trees and flowers.

Aside the aesthetic it provide, it's also very refreshing and a healthy thing to do. Ever wondered why the government advice people to plant more trees? It's because it purifies the air we breathe.

This week's question is very interesting and I think it's important to grow our own food, tend flowers or preserve green spaces for these reasons.

First, growing our own food provide us with an abundance of food which are free from harmful chemical. This provide us with food security. We know the source, we trust the source and we are safe! We enjoy fresh and healthy veggies and other food which helps us to stay nourished, fit and happy.

It also help us extend alms to the needy. Imagine having an abundance of food and giving some to someone in need. How pleasant it sound. As we know, the world is facing food Shortages everyday, so when we take our time to plant our food, we are likely not to be so affected by the shoratges.

For people who live in areas that are prone to soil erosion, having green spaces can do more good than harm. It adds strength to the soil thereby mitigating the damage soil erosion can cause.

Gardening to me is also a form of exercise which keeps one sane mentally and physically. You know how it feel to nurture a child and watch them grow? That's exactly the same feeling gardening brings. We nurture seedlings until they are mature enough to be harvested.

It also provides healing. Nothing compares to seeing a beautiful flower around you bloom despite severe weather conditions. It teaches us subconsciously to stay resilient and strong amidst adversity.

The birds also add beauty to this as they hang around the trees humming sweet melodies day by day, there by providing us a beam of hope and peace of mind.

Staying around green spaces are good way to elevate our mood and improve our health condition. Nature never lies, nature is never dramatic, never bring chaos, rather, it brings calmness, serenity, happiness, hope, a better life to humanity.

Nature is a perfect example that most of the good gift of life are free and brings life to our souls.

I can't count the different species of flowers and fruit tree I have in my compound. Coming home to them have been so therapeutic for me. I love to watch the tree wave in harnony when it's windy and see the flower bloom during the day.

A collective effort from everyone in the community will yield a better result.

It's wonderful to read different garden philosophies and I'm glad to read yours. As I read eveyone's entry, I come to realize that there are garden benefits that I often overlook - that is, sharing and helping the community. Yes, we share our vegetables to our neighbors but I hadnt realized it has great impacts on others and the communuty until I read some entries here. So, I feel the need to give more, even more than before. Sharing is caring. Thanks for sharing!

Ah, the more we garden, the more we can inspire others to do the same! There's a lot to be said for the beauty of a garden, let alone it's practicality in terms of food security and other enviro benefits. A great response!

I believe gardening are very important for our health and happiness, Like me, vegetables and flowers are my stress reliever. Growing our own food and closest to nature helps us calm and connected. Like you said, its not about beauty but its about healing and hope. I totally agree that if more people take care of their space the community will benefit. nature is truly a gift toe everyone. Take care always and plant more.
