From Soil to Soul
From Soil to Soul
From Soil to Soul is a monthly journey into the nourishing world of homegrown food — from the first seed sown to the final bite on your plate. Rooted in wellness, this blog explores how growing your own fruit and vegetables can support a healthier, more mindful lifestyle. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a curious gardener, this series is all about reconnecting with where our food comes from and discovering the joy of growing your own.
Each month, I’ll focus on one seasonal crop – from crisp courgettes to earthy beetroot and sweet shallots – and take you step-by-step through how to sow it from seed or bulb, how to care for it as it grows, and when to harvest for the best flavour and nutrition, with simple steps that suit gardens big and small, even pots on a balcony. Growing your own food isn’t just satisfying – it’s a powerful way to support your overall wellness. You get fresher produce, spend more time outdoors, and become more mindful of the rhythms of nature and eating seasonally.
But this blog is about more than just gardening. From Soil to Soul is about slowing down, eating with the seasons, and reconnecting with the food on your plate. Growing your own is a deeply grounding practice — good for your body, mind, and the planet. So, whether you’re new to growing or looking to deepen your connection with what you eat, I invite you to dig in and grow along with me — one crop, one month, one soulful step at a time.
