Everyone must have their own dream. Likewise with me. I remember when I was little and the population in my village was still very limited, not now that it's getting crowded. When I was little I had a simple house close to the rice fields of the people, even my grandparents had a rice field which was always planted with rice and various kinds of vegetables. When I was little, I rarely added vegetables that were chemically fertilized, all relying only on the power of organic fertilizers that I made myself with the main ingredients of manure and dry leaves, all of which I owned myself. Imagine how healthy the previous generation was before getting to know the instant food and instant drinks that have become the habits of the current generation in my city.
My teenage life is also filled with instant food that is always appetizing, and it was only after entering the age of 30 that I started to get bored and wanted to start living my healthy life again like when I was little. And I have a dream to have my own mini garden in my new house and not join my parents' house anymore, of course. And it was only at the age of 37 that I dared to take steps to make a tiny house like my dream with lots of vegetable plants that I could pick with joy because all the plants in my new house were native without any chemical fertilizers. And we managed to do this after 2 years of sterilizing our soil so we don't get used to the presence of chemical fertilizers, of course.
And here I am now in my new house that I have just lived in for 1 week. Even though I've only been in it for a week, look at my garden. Already a lot of plants right? We planted these plants ourselves right where the first stone was laid for our house, and when our house was finished, our plants were also big, before building a house because of limited funds, we also started farming on this land to simply learn and adapt how to become farmers and get used to the soil so as not exposed to fertilizers.
In the afternoon when I'm already tired with my work routine, after taking a shower and cleaning the house. I like to see a hidden paradise in my small yard. it turns out that this is what my parents felt when I was little, they even loved their plants more than their own children. In fact, I once deliberately damaged my parents' plants so that they would give me more affection than their plants. and after I grow up and go through this myself, then I will feel what they feel. In fact I'm so very possessive of my plants. I treated them like I fell in love for the first time.
And look at the number of my plants, there are eggplants that start learning to bear fruit. Chilies that are starting to learn to bear fruit, mangoes and kedondongs that are starting to see their fruit buds. Wild Spinach and many more. We deliberately plant these plants for our own consumption and to meet our daily vegetable needs. Even now we are growing sweet potatoes and cassava for vegetables and fruit. Every evening when my husband and I take care of our plants, I always tell stories about that childhood incident, it looks so ridiculous.. ha...ha.. how about you. Have you ever experienced this as a child? Greetings from us tOmi and maya from the city of Binjai Indonesia and I invite
