Today is Earth Day. I personally believe every day should be Earth Day as I don’t think there should be just one specific day to sensitize people about caring for the environment and saving the planet.
Well, from my part and everyone at home, we have started to grow some greens and herbs in the back garden. There’s not much space but it is still a start.
Some coriander seeds just thrown on the soil have given birth to these little baby coriander stems; they have just started to see sunlight.
Some spinach… my favourite green!
A horrible snail is eating all the spinach! I’d be happier if it would eat the weeds!
The baby papaya tree is so cute! I’ll have to wait for a while, I think, before this papaya tree bares some fruits!
Lemongrass is always nice in greens soup and Chinese dishes.
The turmeric plant. Turmeric is very good for infections and acnes. I use it as a natural facial mask mixed with oats and sugar.
I’m impatient for them to grow!

Happy Earth Day! 😀 I wanna post something similar on my blog from my garden. I hope you don’t mind. This post has really inspired me. 😀 I’ve sown some spinachs too and I’m waiting for them to come out. Can’t wait to taste them. Yummy!

I don’t mind at all! It would be nice to see your garden and I love all your posts! 🙂

this is so adorable! I wish I had a little corner to grow such stuff around here. I’d do it in the apartment, but the cats would have a field trip tearing it all to shreds. ;p<BR/>happy Earth day!

Thanks Celine! Well, I’m just enjoying the space while I have it! Lucky the stray cats over here don’t tear the plants apart!
