I’m glad you have the opportunity to hit the reset button like that. It sounds like you have a positive look ahead for the change, which is half the battle in my opinion.

It might take some time to feel like you fit in better with your new group, but the extra effort is worth it ten fold if you do find your close friend group there.

Most of the best friendships I ever had started off a bit Rocky. And usually were not at all what I expected. Come to think of it, things are rarely what I expect.

Best of luck!

My wife and I (mostly her) started some simpler growing this summer. We are both new at it.

Just basically a single raised garden with potatoes and carrots, a small compost bin and a little garden greenhouse.

I don’t think either of us were really expecting it to feel so rewarding to harvest food that we grew. It’s the most excited I have seen her about something since the kids were born. We are hoping to upscale a bit more next year with what we have learned so far.

Food forest concept isn’t something I have heard of, but I’ll definitely dig into it, so thanks for that!
