Do you really have a walled garden Sally? How utterly divine. I'm sure you do miss the time you once did tending...but I bet you're an expert at giving directions! Watering...I think is one of the most nurturing things you can do - for the garden and for you...it requires close inspection and attention, and you are well-rewarded for your efforts. I do understand your fear of falling - that trip I had late last year was not a good experience - I go a little more slowly on that path now as a result. Mx

I love reading your Substack while eating lunch, then I go outside with renewed energy to tend my garden.

No rest for the wicked at your place. It has been a bit like that at ours, my husband does most of the work, I pick the herbs, give directions and water, but I do miss being able to spend the time I used to in the garden, a walled garden and fear of falling keep me at bay
