Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India
Taking care of our Earth is so very important. Working, cultivating and conserving it not only has benefits for the land itself, but for humans as well. Under the umbrella and guidance of the M.A. Center, I joined a group of about half a dozen volunteers to create and maintain a community garden. Many of us did not know anything about gardening, but our willingness to learn, dedication to the task, and of course the miraculous work of sun, water and soil produced a plush backyard garden full of tomatoes, squash, carrots, lettuce and radishes. We considered the first year an experiment and after much success, I believe we will do it again next year. Some of us have hope that the garden will grow into an avenue for providing food for those in need, or into a business in which the proceeds can fund charitable work.
