Contagious Gardening

Recently, a local city gardener was featured on a PBS show I like to watch. As she chatted with the interviewer regarding the variety of flowers and plants she cultivates in different areas of town, she identified several businesses that have made positive changes to their landscapes over the past couple of years. She also stated some residential areas have begun to spruce up their outside spaces. 

The takeaway for me? Gardening promotes a trickle-down effect. One person works to improve the scenery, change the aesthetic in their neck of the woods, and before long, people start to take notice and follow suit. Thus, gardening creates a sense of community that is contagious!
