Mary Reynolds: Buđenje Vrta

Mary Reynolds dizajnirala je nagrađivane vrtove i krajolike diljem svijeta. Aktivistica je prirode i reformirana dizajnerica krajolika, jer, kako kaže, "Sve se mora promijeniti. Uključujući i mene." Njezina knjiga, The Garden Awakening: Designs to Nurture Our Lands and Ourselves, je "korak-po-korak priručnik za stvaranje vrta u skladu sa životnom silom u zemlji, baveći se ne samo time što ljudi koji su zaduženi za zemlju žele, već i pitanjem što zemlja želi postati." Reynolds je također utemeljitelj međunarodnog pokreta za obnovu divljih vrtova, 'We Are the Ark,' Ark je skraćenica za Acts of Restorative Kindness. Njezin revolucionarni rad poziva ljude diljem svijeta da transformiraju svoje vrtove u dio životnog i duboko međusobno povezanog ekosustava. Više govori u ovom govoru iz 2016.

I have asked repeatedly "what can *I* -- one person -- do?" and you have answered beautifully. Now I have a plan and a space I can nurture. The child analogy spoke to my heart. My little one (inner child) cannot wait to take care of the space I've been given to care for until I return to the earth. I've recently begun this year rewilding with a patch of wildflowers. And I got to be part of a challenge on Kindspring.org that taught me a lot about helping creatures in the garden to thrive (much like you share on your "Extra Activities" page. Thank you!) The story of being lost in the field when you were little -- I have experienced this aliveness with nature as a child (and recently again) -- the deep connection. We really are ... [View Full Comment]
