Mary Reynolds: Prebujanje Vrta

By Mary Reynolds
Sep 19, 2022

Mary Reynolds je oblikovala nagrajene vrtove in pokrajine po vsem svetu. Je aktivistka za naravo in reformirana krajinska oblikovalka, saj po njenih besedah ​​»Vse se mora spremeniti. Tudi jaz«. Njena knjiga, The Garden Awakening: Designs to Nurture Our Lands and Ourselves, je "priročnik po korakih za ustvarjanje vrta v harmoniji z življenjsko silo v zemlji, ki ne obravnava le tega, kaj ljudje, odgovorni za zemljo, želijo, ampak tudi vprašanje, kaj želi zemlja postati." Reynolds je tudi ustanovitelj mednarodnega gibanja za oživitev vrtov, 'We Are the Ark,' Ark pomeni Acts of Restorative Kindness. Njeno prelomno delo vabi ljudi po vsem svetu, da spremenijo svoje vrtove v del življenjskega in globoko povezanega ekosistema. Več o tem deli v tem govoru iz leta 2016.

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 ...
