Family Activity

Here is a suggestion for families practicing 'social distancing', as we all should. Keep a close eye on those in your family with seizures: drink lots of water, take frequent breaks, wear sun protection, and watch out for seizure triggers.

PLANT A VICTORY GARDEN!


During this global pandemic, food is still being farmed and manufactured, but while we sit, stuck in our homes, many people are eating junk to comfort themselves. After the expected months of this, our bodies will be in even worse shape...from battling the CV-19, other health concerns, too much TV watching or other sedentary activities, etc. 

We are going to need the activity of gardening, and the healthy food it will produce.

Figure out how much space you have (even a few pots on a windowsill can yield constant salad greens and some strawberries.)

So plan your garden, order seeds, potting soil and pots...whatever you need. Get started on those seeds now so you can benefit from the 'fruits of your labor'.

I will soon be writing a book about this, and using methods like Square Foot Gardening.
