Ep 25. Baobab Tree of Life, Growing Kindness

Thank you for being part of spreading the word about how gardens and nature can heal and grow our lives.

This episode starts with The Little Prince's view that it's critical to rid the little planets he visits of all the bad seeds that turn into bad plants. Specifically, the Baobab—ironically, an ancient tree adored here on earth—leading to a lesson of clearing resentments and growing in kindness (before it destroys our world.)

Then there are highlights of a Woody Plant Conference hosted by the PA Horticultural Society, including a report of Baobabs' decline in Africa known as the Tree of Life. Plus a tidbit about Wakehurst's Millennium Seed Bank initiatives and a Plant Exploration with a Purpose. https://askmarystone.com/baobab-tree-of-life/

The episode wraps up with a heartfelt story of three young philanthropists taking it upon themselves to help Rivers Edge Horse Rescue and Sanctuary, showing us that something little can grow into something big. https://askmarystone.com/helping-rivers-edge-horse-rescue/

It's not only about gardens; it's about nature's inspirations, about grasping the glories of the world around us, gathering what we learned from mother nature, and carrying these lessons into our garden of life. So, let's jump in in the spirit of learning from each other. We have lots to talk about.
