I just Googled the word "patience." Here's what it says, "the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset."
Yep, I'm trying not to get upset or angry by the delay in spring. Trying is the key word here. And to say that I've suffered through the winter may be a bit dramatic...but there have been days...especially recently when Spring has officially arrived and it's still pretty cold and more snow is on its way.
Patience.
So why am I rambling about patience? Because as a gardener there are many lessons in patience. One being the waiting for winter to end and Spring to begin. And once those seeds get planted, patience while waiting for seeds to pop out of the soil.
Today, I received a newsletter from The Neighborhood Farm. The writer pointed out that whether you start seeds early or late, the plants eventually catch up and "know" when to germinate and grow. I like that. I like that we can trust the seed and the
earth...and God....to make it all grow. Whether we have patience or not, the seeds will do what they are suppose to do.
If you're like me...chomping at the bit to get your garden started but
delayed by the slow start to spring....
We will get there.
The snow will melt.
The temps will rise.
We will plant.
We will harvest.
We just have to have a little more patience.
For now, if you need something to do...feel free to take my e-course, starting next week.
(Yes, that was a shameless plug).

Nourish by Coco Lewis Has Launched!
For the past couple of weeks I have been working on and soft launching my newest venture, Nourish by Coco Lewis. I'm starting Nourish by Coco Lewis to combine my skills and passions with what I have learned and experienced (so far) in edible gardening, food and wellness. Through newsletters, e-courses, workshops and/or one-to-one coaching my hope is to guide others towards better health, deeper nourishment and connection to food and community.
I am currently developing e-courses and workshops that focus on starting an edible garden, working through a CSA share, and seasonal eating. Stay tuned as these exciting things unfold.
For now, like my Facebook page, sign up for emails/newsletters, or send me an email to inquire about how I can work with you one-on-one.
