Summary:
"Take charge of
your
family's
food
security
by learning how to grow
your
own
fruits, vegetables, and herbs-and right along with them, you'll nurture
your
own
inner strength, too.
Food
insecurity affects millions of people worldwide. Without access to well-stocked stores or nutritious, fresh foods, those living in "
food
deserts" face more hunger and health issues than communities where a diversity of
food
is plentiful. With the inspiration and knowledge found in How to Become a Gardener, self-reliance and
food
autonomy are within reach for anyone willing to get a little dirt under their nails and dig in. Author, health coach, and
food
security
advocate Ashlie Thomas of The Mocha Gardener (@the.mocha.gardener) serves as an experienced and encouraging guide on
your
journey toward self-empowerment through the cultivation of
your
own
homegrown harvests. With a spirit of respect for others, for nature, and for community, Ashlie walks you step by step through not only the practical ins and outs of gardening-from seed starting to making the harvest-but also through the personal challenges and lessons found within the act of gardening itself. Regardless of whether you only have space to grow in a few pots or you have enough room for multiple raised beds or an in-ground garden, you'll
find
freedom and wellness through the
food
you grow, along with patience, compassion, and perspective. How to Become a Gardener focuses on: What makes a space a garden and how to get one started How gardens can be a symbol of resilience in challenging times Finding what motivates you to grow and using it to cultivate nutrient-dense, homegrown harvests Why reclaiming
your
food
authority is one of the most empowering things you can do for you and
your
family The importance of finding personal freedom by growing
your
own
garden-to-table
food
How the garden grows you just as much as you grow the garden How to Become a Gardener is about growing
food
, yes. But it's also about finding
your
strength through gardening, reclaiming
your
food
authority, discovering
your
motivation, and learning that no matter what
your
garden yields, it's always worth the wait."--From publisher.
