Corner View: Green/Nature

Caring about nature and the world around us is so important. I already wrote about our ways of green living here but I don't think I mentioned that growing your own veggies and fruits is yet another way of being green. I know it's easy when you have a house with some space outside that you can turn into garden but living in a city doesn't mean you can't grown your own. Last year we managed to have our very own lettuce, radishes, herbs and carrots; we tried to grow tomatoes too but we failed (the photo below of beautifully grown tomatoes was taken in autie Rosanna's city garden where she also successfully grows other vegetables and fruits).


Wouldn't it be wonderful to live in a house surrouned by this amount of greenery? I often wonder if people living in this house are happier just because every day they wake up to this scenery. I bet they are.
I dream that one day we will have our own house with a garden to grow all kinds of veggies and to live our green happy life to the fullest.

  7. I love the baby plants. I ave some popping up in my garden too. You can grow a lot in a small space, I have found. The key is soil, sun, water. Especially the soil. Your house surrounded by green looks like the photo I posted.

  11. yes! i wonder about that too. does it affect you, when you can push your toes in green scenery, anytime you want, like early in the morning, e.g...; or that you can gaze at green from every window.
    it might, since green is so soothing?
