The Garden as Medicine
What if the best thing you could do for your health this week was go outside and dig in the dirt? In Issue 15, I share a full update from my parents' garden — the fruit trees, the flower border, two new blueberries, and an herb spiral I built entirely by accident — plus a deep dive into the science of why gardens heal us.
Before and After the Shade
This week’s newsletter includes a livestream announcement, updates from all three classes, a new YouTube video on California native plants, and major changes in the garden—including the removal of a century-old avocado tree. I also share some thoughts on upcycling and a personal reflection on tending landscapes across generations.
