today was a little different. I planted some seeds. It was a huge moment on the path towards actually growing something - to actually creating something living - but on camera it didn't look like anything at all.
I was surprised by the way that industrialization has divorced us so far from the actual magic of what farming is that most content on youtube etc. doesn't actually talk about what is happening when we're planting seeds.
I started writing about seeds themselves and how they relate to and embody all the most interesting parts of growing your own food in 2020. Half of it was answering the questions about the process of growing seeds that most people seem to gloss over and the other half was putting some of my own interest into words in a way that helps other people understand what's so appealing about the process.
I'm not sure what the end result or output is going to be but I know that I'm going to focus on seeds this week and see what I can do to spread some marvel in the world.
