Sanjana Sanghi Instagram – •Planting In The Pandemic 🌶 🥦🥒• Untrue. Mum and dad have nursed every inch of our vegetable garden for years before the pandemic. Before I moved out of home, I ate many of those vegetables and fruits everyday. Guilty as charged – without hardly even absorbing what a miracle that was. Vegetables! With ZERO pesticide and ZERO fertiliser, directly from our garden, on to our kadhais and then our plates and in my tummy. And I went around being oblivious, or was too young to understand how special that was or simply didn’t have the mindspace to acknowledge it. Why did it have to take terms “Farm to Table”, “Planting in The Pandemic”, “Organic is the future” to enter the mainstream – for me to spend time adoring & acknowledging these most beautiful potatoes, onions, garlic, beans, etc etc that were growing ON my home ground, ALL this while? I’d treat “Organic Farming” as a great accomplishment that someone, somewhere is engaging with, without even realising it was what I pretty much grew up with. This pandemic’s been one of the greatest teachers. It’s the simplest learning, “Be Grateful for What You Have.” I hate that it’s taken a pandemic for those words to become a reality for so many of us, me included. ☹️ Video courtesy : @themoodspace Wearing : @shopmulmul #GuiltyAsCharged #AllThatITookForGranted #PandemicLearning #OrganicFarming
