    A community with a lack of nutritious food options will often struggle with health issues. Access to fresh produce and whole foods should be for everyone in the community, and not just for those who live in well-to-do neighborhoods. Nutritious food impact a child's live immensely.

    Pollinators are part of nature and have a purpose in our ecosystem. We need their help pollinating much of the fruits and vegetables we eat.

    I use a combination of gardening spaces: garden in the backyard, some herbs inside and some in a pot in the front yard. My newest plant (thanks to the ecochallenge!) is a potted Bay Laurel. I'm keeping it in for the winter and look forward to using the bay leaves in cooking.

    I enjoyed this year's Ecochallenge. I will be able to take what I've started in the past 3 weeks and continue on this path of wellness for my body and for the earth. I'm glad to have gone on this journey with you all!

    I'm finding peace in routine and working on improving my health. So many things are out of our control right now. It helps to focus on what I can control.
