I’ve been contacted quite a bit lately by people interested in the therapy part of Garden Therapy.  Most of my posts contain the results of therapy as the gardening, cooking, art, and writing are all about connecting with myself and others and that is the healing path for me.  I have touched lightly on therapeutic benefits of gardening for me but I often feel so full of joy when practicing these art forms that I don’t focus on the journey of hardship and suffering that has led me here.  So when Virginia from Container Gardening Made Easy asked to interview me, I found it a great opportunity to share a bit more. 

There is much to be said about the healing magic of digging in the earth and I plan to share more of my experiences—both the joy and the pain—as well as the stories of others like me who find gardening gives them back something they couldn’t find elsewhere.  In the meantime, if you would like to read the interview you can find it here.  And thanks, Virginia, for asking.
