64. What Is The Garden Trying To Teach Us?

In this first episode of our series on tending and taking, Angela and Deanna begin in the garden—remembering family gardens, green peppers, root-bound plants, and the holy work of pulling weeds. What grows above the soil may get our attention, but this conversation reminds us that real flourishing begins with unseen investment, patience, presence, and care. As we explore wisdom expressed in humanity, we’re asking what gardens can teach us about people, community, and the difference between consuming a harvest and helping tend it.Timestamps00:20 — New week01:38 — Childhood garden memories05:49 — Gardens begin before the harvest08:06 — Intention, attention, and participation12:18 — A watched plant never grows17:08 — The Little Red Hen and shared laborShow Music: Just Like Me by, ThruLineThe Morning Share Podcast is produced, edited, and mixed by Angela Boeckman and Deanna West.SocialsWebsite: themorningshare.comInstagram: @themorningsharepodSubstack: themorningshare.substack.com
