#womenempowerment

Spent as much time as my body will allow me sorting out the ground in my garden for planting vegetable plants, sore hips, knees and elbows have restricted me a little. It all started with my best friend buying me a tin of seeds to help me have something to help with my mental health, as she lives the other end of the country she can’t be there for me as much as she would like, learning something new, sticking with it through the challenges that arise and learning to deal with the failures and learn from them so that I can continue to get stronger and heal. Little did I know that the ground in my garden was so bad, huge rocks, bricks,glass and tiles are just some of the things I’m sieving through. I’ve had to did down daily deep, one bed at a time, sieve out the debris and mix what soil remains with some compost (which I buy a bag of once a week with my shopping as that is as much as my budget will allow) then start filling up the hole and hope I will end up with good enough soil for my plants to survive. This is my only option to continue with this project, I have very limited money, I don’t drive so the few free items I’ve been able to get I’ve had to ask my very busy son to pick up but I can only rely on him to an extent. Despite all this I’m sticking with it, getting there very slowly and achieving. #gardening #challenge #vegetablegarden #mentalhealthawareness If anyone would care to help with this project, especially soil, please do here https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/1BEULWC9BF2ZJ?ref_=wl_share
