A crash course in changing the world.
LONDON - ZONE 27 - 15-MAR-2020
We harvested the first beans today, enough for a salad. It was a turning point for us, an achievement, not voiced aloud, but quietly acknowledged in the looks we exchanged as we ate. We had fallen far, some said, but I wondered at the truth of it.
The Levelling had taken much from us that we had once held dear; comforts and indulgences for the most part, that had served only to distance us from the natural world around us and the turning of the seasons. I say now, in hindsight, that we had already fallen, long ago.
So it came to this; a package, given freely that we might begin to help ourselves. Now we sit here, fresh with hope, and humbled by a package sent from Africa.
This post was inspired by the Fresh Start Kit, as detailed in my blog post Disaster Relief! - Hydroponic Fresh Start
