First harvest from the plantains I planted a year ago. Feeling so proud of myself!
I dream of a less consumer driven world and a deeper connection with the earth and the food we eat.
One of my favorite things is how my neighbors and I share the fruits and veggies we grow.
There’s nothing like the joy of eating something you planted with your own hands…
Still gotta work on my machete skills lol.
I used the rest of the tree I cut down as mulch to nourish and protect the soil around the others.
Did you know that every time a banana or plantain tree gives fruit, it dies. But new ones are already growing before the old one falls. Nature is amazing. Pura vida!
