Park Howell wrote an interesting post this morning titled 40 Tips for a Better Life: Can You Add to the List?. Having had some experience with Life, as we all have, I thought I’d add my $0.02 worth and attempt to enlarge the list.

Here’s another 11 Tips that gardeners could use and are certainly worthy of consideration;

  • 41. Go plant something…anything! Then take pleasure in watching it grow
  • 42. Start a compost heap and watch it decompose each day. It will help remind you that everything returns to its former starting point…”Ashes to ashes; Dust to dust”
  • 43. Pick some flowers for your neighbours
  • 44. Hug a tree
  • 45. Eat more veggies…especially your greens
  • 46. Put the power tools away and start swinging that mattock again
  • 47. Create a memorial garden: For the day you decided to live a better life
  • 48. Join a community garden
  • 49. Start a blog, or at least spend time commenting on them
  • 50. Invest in a hammock and subscribe to your favourite gardening magazine
  • 51. Open your garden up to the public and enjoy their gratitude
