Growing Dinners

Really like the last question and answer in this piece from Ode:

Does gardening change the way you eat?


"My son said this to me at the dinner table the other day: 'Mom, these are the best potatoes I've ever tasted. Do we have more?' I had to tell him no, that we'd used all of them and food doesn't grow out of thin air. The supplies aren't endless, and we need to remind ourselves of that often. It's important to me that we savor our dinner. Gardening is a way to get a sense of place and ownership. I know that sounds deep, but it's really fun, too."
