This food forest style border encompasses the darkness but also what helps me see the light. A jigsaw path leads through childhood memories of colour, bug hunting and eating fruit straight from the plant. A darker area with small seats shows the isolation of emetophobia, planting consists of cool coloured, culinary and medicinal species with pops of complementary colours showing the calming side of a garden but highlighting that they aren't completely safe, a vegetable bed with family tools to show what led to today and a bird bath built from books because books have always been a part of me and without the library, family, nature and gardening, I'm not sure where I'd be. Hopefully this story will continue.
