There is a significant subject in the air in recent time about slow living, slow cooking , slow gardening, slow travel etc etc ...where most of the people around the world have adopted to slow living in the pandemic years. 'Slow living' a lifestyle that encourages a slower approach to everyday life, could be said relaxed or leisurely lifestyle. After the pandemic and lock down people started to take up slow living lifestyle and enjoying it.
While talking about gardening, my husband is lover of plants. He is a Bonsai enthusiast and have created number of Bonsai plants over thirty five years. After his retirement and shifting to our own state his involvement with gardening has become more intense and tries his hand in all sorts of gardening from growing flowers, veggies, fruits, herbs to succulents beside his enthusiasm for Bonsai. Our gardening is mostly container gardening on the terrace. Our lifestyle has become more or less like 'slow living' since our children are away and when it comes to gardening it is 'slow gardening' as well.
Everyone knows what gardening gives a person when involved with it. For some it is a hobby and for many it becomes life long passion.'And to some business as well.
Slow gardening' is a philosophical approach to gardening which includes participants to savour everything they do. Like embracing the seasons, finding enjoyment in the garden at all times of the year. More important getting connected to the natural world.
We enjoy our garden by seeing seasonal blooms, veggies, fruits, herbs as well sharing the reaps with neighbours.
Slow gardening will inspire you to slip into rhythm of the seasons. Take slow gardening easy and get more enjoyment of it.
