Gardening also provides a space for mindfulness, a practice that benefits our nervous systems and well-being. I have found gardening to be a meditative pursuit; I can lose myself in the garden, looking at bees and other insects, or just sitting among the plants enjoying the sounds of buzzing bees, and the smell of herbs in the cool morning.

If you haven’t started a garden yet, herbs are a great place to start. The cost of a small plant at the nursery is around $3.99, the same price you’d pay for fresh herbs at the grocery store! Even if you calculate the cost of your soil, it’s a long-term investment that enhances your physical and mental health, your culinary appetite!

It is with great excitement then to announce that we now have our own pop-up pollinator and herb garden at Vintique Alley on Magnolia Avenue in Riverside.

It’s not too late to start your summer garden…
