How To Start A Friendship Garden For Pollinators

 

This backyard friendship garden has been placed right next to the patio for easy access all year long.

Fall has arrived here in Central Florida nearly a month ago and brought with it the much-needed drop in daily temperatures.  Instead of the sauna temps of the '90s and high humidity, we are now enjoying lower humid days and temps in the '80s.

While the last year and a half have not been easy for any of us it has brought up the reality that we need each other more than we ever imagined.  It was easy to overlook our friends when things were going well for us and we could go about our day without the thought or a care about any harm coming our way.

It was also easy to overlook the space around us that we call home.  Whether we own or rent we all have a place we call ours.  When you are leaving your job at the end of the day you tell everyone I'm going "home" now.  When you go on a vacation you know you will return home feeling like you need another vacation to recover from the one you just took.

A friendship garden is a place to preserve memories of the ones that have a special meaning and place 

in your life through a variety of plants and items.

A friendship garden is easy to start.  Here are a few simple steps to help you get started off on the right foot.

Location

You can choose an indoor or outdoor location.  It really is up to you and what you can afford or have time to devote to your garden.  You want it to be easy to access and cultivate.  If you make it too far away from where you normally would walk you'll soon lose interest and the garden will never get off the ground.

Invite Your Friends

So the obvious thing you will need to make this friendship garden work is friends!

Get out your list of names and addresses and send them a text or card in the mail inviting them to be a part of your friendship garden.  You can send them something too and encourage them to join in the fun.

Journal

Start a garden journal and keep a good record of who you invited and who sent you something for your garden. When and where you placed it in the garden and if it is a plant write down the progress of growth.  When did it first bloom? How long did the flowers last? What kind of care did each plant need and so on.  Take photos and put them in your journal or if you know how to draw well enough to know what something is then by all means document your garden with your own personal touch.

I'd love to be a part of your friendship garden.  So please think about joining my 52 Week Snail Mail Challenge and Poem Challenge.

If you would like to take part, just sign-up for my newsletter, here.  Then you can send me an email letting me know you would like to take part in this fun project.

Together we can encourage one another by cultivating our friendship and our garden at the same time!

Sending You Sunshine!

What Makes A Good Friend? - Actions Speak Louder Than Words!

 

Talk Is Cheap

Did you ever see the movie My Fair Lady starring Audrey Hepburn?  Do you remember the song she sang to professor Higgins, "words, words all I hear are words"...

What was she wanting?  She wanted him to take action and show her how he felt about her and she hoped he felt the same way about her that she felt about him.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

In other words, she wanted action!  When she didn't get it what did she do?  Packed up her bags and left!  Did she find what she was looking for out there in the cold world?  Nope!  In the end, she came back to the place that she called "home" and to be by his side just as before.  We were left to fill in the blanks about what happened next.  But, I imagined that they became good friends and that she eventually found a younger man to marry and lived happily ever after.  The end!

What Makes A Good Friend?

So that leads me into my story for today.  What makes a good friend?  That's what we are going to talk about in this week's podcast here at Markets of Sunshine.  Hi, I'm your host Marsha.  Welcome Back!

I've discovered something interesting in my #52weeksnailmailchallenge and #52weekpoemchallenge that I started a few weeks ago.  You want to know what I discovered.  That people want to take action and nurture the friendships that they have but they don't know how to do it.  And, even if they are given the steps and reasons why they should they still won't take the action and put forth the effort it takes to be a good friend to keep a good friend.  

So, I did some research and found an excellent article that I think all of you will benefit from.  All of the information is taken from an ancient book of wisdom.  If you apply the advice you are guaranteed that you will become a good friend so that you can then keep a good friend.  That is a gift worth working to gain.  Wouldn't you agree?

Here are 7 key elements about building a meaningful friendship that I think you will find helpful both to yourself and for the friends you currently have and will gain in the future by applying this advice.

Embrace Imperfection To Unlock Your Creativity

Do you ever find yourself comparing what you've done with what someone else did?  I know I've been guilty of that a time or two.  But, when we do that it only makes us feel miserable and does not help us feel good at all about ourselves.  So we need to stop doing that right now!

So how do we stop this comparison game?

We look for the God-given gifts that we do have and embrace those instead.  That stops the comparison game dead in its tracks.

Daydreaming Does Wonders For Your Creativity - Episode 7 Markets of Sunshine Podcast

7 Creative habits to unlock your creativity - #6 Daydreaming 

We are talking about the "7 Creative Habits to Unlock Your Creativity" through various quick and easy ways that you can incorporate into your life each day.  Let's dive into habit #6 on our list of seven.  It's all about daydreaming and using our imagination just like we did when we were young.  Do you remember that?

I can remember back in 3rd grade and getting in trouble many times for daydreaming.  The problem was my eyes.  I sat at the back of the classroom and could not see the writing on the blackboard.  I would squint until my eyes went blurry, and then I'd get bored and start looking out the window and start daydreaming.  

Between the teacher and my Mother, the problem was finally figured out, and a trip to the eye doctor and a pair of glasses solved the issue.  So the moral of the story is that we all have the inborn ability to use our imagination to take us somewhere when we are feeling stuck.

So here is what I want you to do this week.  Get out in nature or look out a window at nature and let your imagination take you to a place you love or would like to visit in the future.  Set a timer, and when the timer goes off, your brain will automatically bring you back to reality.  Next, I want you to do whatever you love to do that makes you feel creative.  Set the timer again for however long you have to devote to this thing.  

Get on the list for lots of creative goodness

Start doing this regularly with all of the Creative Habits that I've shared with you thus far, and before you know it, they will become a natural part of your daily routine.  Isn't that cool!  Want to get the list of "7 Creative Habits To Unlock Your Creativity" delivered to your email inbox?  Simply sign-up for our free newsletter here!  

I hope that you have been enjoying this new podcast addition to the Markets of Sunshine family.  We love bringing you useful content that helps you feel joy and gratitude through nature.

Keep Creating In The Sunshine!

Stay Safe!

Unlock Your Creativity Habit #3 Markets of Sunshine Podcast Episode 4

 Hello! Welcome! to the Markets of Sunshine Podcast Episode 4

Today I'm going to share with you the #3 Habit that will help you to Unlock Your Creativity.  I'll share some of my personal ways that I found that helped me as I home schooled my daughter to unlock our Creativity.  I made sure that she had fun everyday!

Whatever it is that you call fun is up to you.  Don't let anyone tell you what your fun should look like.  Take a good look at what you already have fun doing.  Maybe it's going to the movies with your friends or family.  Or, maybe you just like reading a good book.  Fun doesn't have to be with others.  It can be just by yourself.

Include fun don't exclude fun!  All work and no play makes life dull.  So, I'm giving you permission to have fun everyday of the week.  Having fun is what gets me out of bed everyday.  Just knowing that I'm going to record my podcast on Friday is fun.  Monday through Thursday I know I'm going to record my YouTube videos. That's fun!  I know on Saturday and Sunday I'm going to spend time with my husband and do fun things together in our house and yard. That's fun!

So grab yourself a beautiful journal from my Etsy shop Markets of Sunshine and write down these three Creative Habits that help you unlock your Creativity and review them each day.  No matter if you are a Teacher, a Supervisor and a Mom.  You can use these tips to unlock your Creativity and make your job more fun.

Go ahead and click that play button below and listen to the episode 4 "Unlock Your Creativity Habit #3" now!

Thank You for being here with me today.  

Keep Creating In The Sunshine!
