Live like you intend to stay. Earth is our perennial garden.

Aloha! Happy Pink Full Moon nature lovers!

I used to think I had to have a garden or a plot of land to practice permaculture or to steward the land.

I’m learning more and more that ALL of Earth is our garden.

We can live, like we intend to stay, no matter where we are.

Even if we find ourselves in a jail cell, we can tend our inner garden.

Creating a paradise within that radiates love for all of humanity.

It is my ecological purpose to listen to the voice of all of Nature and respond when there is a need.

Whether it’s cleaning up trash on the side of the road, helping a neighbor rake leaves, turning my leftovers into soil or planting seeds in the wild…I’m investing in Mother Earth because I am indebted to her for giving me life!

I am alive! I am provided for!

And I am responsible for reciprocating these gifts.

Pandemics, wars and tragedies will come and go.

But nothing can stop me from cultivating this paradise garden and living my deepest purpose.

Aloha! Malama da aina!

I invite you to enjoy these photos I took of “my garden” walks in the desert here in Southern Utah.

It’s tent caterpillar season here 😀

My first time to capture a Joshua tree blooming

Quite an interesting pedestal for pollinators
