Sippin’ on holy basil + calendula tea grown in t Sippin’ on holy basil + calendula tea grown in the Bear Roots garden and realizing how much I miss being around all the lovely plants. 

While I’m working in the gardens sweating to death, being eaten alive by black flies and cursing the persistent porcupines I wonder if I’ll do it again next year…. who am I kidding the answer is always going to be yes. 

All the annoyances come with some amazing rewards; the best of all is being able to spend time amongst nature enjoying all of its magic πŸ’š

A close second is being able to share the plants with other people 🌸
