I agree. I think its somewhat like the phrase “hunger is the best sauce”…. a gardener’s shadow means a gardener who tends and loves the garden and wants to learn to protect it- better nourishment than all the chemical products in the world and an abandoned garden.

Very true. Goes along with, “The garden does not outlive the gardener.” We’re an essential nutrient for our garden.
Great photo!
