The holiday season is the perfect time to reflect on the journey of the food that nourishes us. More than ever, it’s important to reconnect with where our meals come from—and teaching our children the value of locally grown, nutrient-rich whole foods is one of the most meaningful and lasting lessons. For our family, planting a garden has always been a cherished tradition. From windowsill herb pots when the kids were little to the backyard garden we’ve recently planted together here in Miami, it has always been about more than just growing food. It’s about spending time together with our hands in the dirt, cultivating a connection to the natural world, understanding the importance of healthy soil, and making thoughtful choices that honor both our bodies and this planet. Tending to our garden instills a sense of responsibility in our children, as each of them has their own tasks, while also nurturing mindfulness and gratitude for the Earth’s many gifts. Watching what blooms and thrives with the changing seasons teaches them that nature has its own rhythm—and that when we align with it, we are more in tune with the world around us. In an age where it’s easy to lose sight of the season when produce naturally grows and the distances our food travels to reach our tables, planting even a small garden reconnects us to the rhythms of the earth. It’s a powerful reminder of the dedication and resilience of American farmers, who work tirelessly to feed us often against great odds. Supporting practices like regenerative farming not only sustains the land we depend on but also ensures that future generations can continue to enjoy its bounty. As we sow these seeds in our backyards and our communities, we’re also cultivating lessons about gratitude, stewardship, and the value of whole, real food. If you’ve ever considered starting a garden, let this be your sign—it’s a gift that nourishes both body and soul in countless ways. 👩‍🌾🥕🍅🥬🧅
