Have you ever wondered about we build communities? Well, the answer may not be that complex. Building communities is much like growing a garden. Both need time, patience, knowledge and above all, compassion to thrive in an environment.

Investing in creating a community and garden has immense payoffs – not immediately, but in the near and far future. Plants not only help us in our day-to-day living but also teach us several virtues. Such as:

With the help of an extensive root system, native plants, share their nutrients with their neighbours. Such sharing of materials enables plants, trees self-sufficient.

It’s no surprise that trees change colours of their leaves with changing seasons. Such adaptive behaviour helps them survive better and longer than being rigid.

No one does it better than trees. From alerting others about pests attack to sharing an underground root network, plants know that working together is best for survival.

Plants are no different than us in their behaviour. Observe these similarities between you and them next time when you’re in your garden.
