just start:
buy a seed
any seed
pray about it (pray over it)
if you will
just outside your dwelling
(even if it’s only a crack)
or a 3 by 9 patch
of re-purposed lawn
close to your door
and a spigot

a number of years ago, my youngest daughter did a 2nd grade experiment on our back porch. a styrofoam cup with a pumpkin seed fell off the table and the seed lodged there on the edge of the yard, well watered by a nearby sprinkler. i noticed some thick, broad leaved loveliness growing and mowed around it for a few weeks. i was pretty depressed at the time, but some little curiosity left in me let it be. it eventually grew to cover a goodly portion of the back yard and produced a dozen nice pumpkins for the kids. i got to mow less as the leaves covered the grass. the rest of our forest garden is now recent history.
