| Introduction | My primary focus is on the place where social and environmental justice, gardening, and spirituality meet. I have a master's degree in social work. I hope to once again be an avid vegetable gardener very soon. I was raised Catholic; I study Buddhism and practice meditation; I attend a Hindu temple every weekend with my husband, a South Indian. I enjoy poetry, charcoal drawing, dance and music, knitting, and learning about India. I write to gain perspective and to share experience. |
