What do you love to grow?
A recent visit to New York City reminded me that, while we may live far and wide, we all have something we love to grow. And, in many ways, these things – whatever they are – tell our stories, ultimately defining who we are, where we’ve been and where we hope to go.
Which leads me to this:
I’d like to invite you to share what you love using the hashtag #GrowWhatYouLove on Instagram. Your photos will be streaming live through the Pass the Pistil Facebook page. Follow this link to see what friends are sharing: #GrowWhatYouLove.
When you post an image to Instagram and tag it with #GrowWhatYouLove and @passthepistil you’ll be automatically entered to win a farmer’s market bag, journal and stickers (see above — I hope you love them as much as me).

Here are few more things I learned this past week while visiting New York City:
- Growing is infectious. When you take time to grow just one or a handful of things, there is a chain reaction. As John Muir said, “When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.”
- The things we chose to grow — weather they be plants, landscapes, families, music, art, food, you name it — are important. These are the things that give life meaning.
- It’s positivity at work. We need this. In today’s world, with so much at stake, we get so much more done when working together.
- Sharing what you love to grow is a good thing. This is how we learn about ourselves, each other and the world around us.
If you don’t have an Instagram feed, that’s okay, pass this along to a friend and share through the comments section of this post or directly through the Pass the Pistil Facebook page.
Either way, can’t wait to see your images!
