REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Plant an Herb GardenConsider the ways you can garden: a plot of land? a patio container? hanging basket? windowsill gardens? What would work best for your living situation and lifestyle?
Olivia Paul 10/11/2019 5:12 PMHaving a dog at home makes it hard to have plants outside (she’s a digger!). I also have cats that like to eat my plants. A hanging basket garden works best for my life, so the animals keep away. I have it right next to my bed, so I can remember to water my plants every morning!
