Slower Living for Busy People- Episode 2

Episode 2- Grow Something Tiny: The Power of One Plant

Many people picture homesteading as sprawling gardens and overflowing harvest baskets — but most homestead journeys start with something much smaller: one living plant.

Growing even one tiny thing is powerful because it:

• builds confidence

• reconnects you to nature

• teaches patience and care

• reminds you that growth happens slowly over time

And the best part? You don’t need a yard, a greenhouse, or perfect sunlight. You can start anywhere.

Here are some easy beginner options:

🌿 Windowsill Herb- basil, mint, rosemary, parsley
🌿 Green Onion Regrow- place trimmed ends in water
🌿 Countertop Microgreens- fast-growing and nutrient-dense
🌿 Patio Tomato or Pepper Plant- small pot, big reward

Water it. Check on it. Notice it.

That one plant becomes a symbol of progress- proof that even when life is busy, something can still grow slowly and faithfully in your care.

And when you’re ready?

Add one more.

You’re not building a garden- you’re building confidence.
