Savin the World by Gardening! Gardening is preserving Biodiversity and trees and species!
Wonderful! 🙂 Thank you!
In the UK now we have a hospital who has it's own allotments that it prescribes for patients. Also there is a doctor in Wales who has stopped prescribing anti depressants and now prescribes gardening. Not only has this reduced the cost to the health service it has shown marked improvements in patient health.
Sophie is just my favourite gardening guru
Oh my gosh. I LOVED this. (standing up and clapping)
