A garden with a self-sufficient lifestyle

Hello everyone, today I will take you all to see the garden around my house that is growing beautifully. It has been raining so often that I have no time to pull out the grass. The beautiful flowers and ornamental plants look a bit worn out, but even so, there are always good things happening in the garden around my house. The bananas I planted are starting to get old, so I decided to take them to the market to sell. But before I went to sell them, I had to do my daily activity of fertilizing the oil palm trees. But the sky looked cloudy and I didn't want it to rain again. I was waiting anxiously. So I had to choose between fertilizing and cutting the bananas to send to the market first. In the end, I decided to cut the bananas to send first because I was afraid that the rain would damage the fertilizer.

Today, there are 2 types of bananas to choose from: Nam Wa bananas, which are guaranteed by the market, and Curry bananas, which I am not sure if the shops will buy them or not, but I decided to take them with me just in case. After picking the bananas, I quickly loaded them onto the tricycle. It was about to rain again, so we got ready and headed to the market. Normally, I drive my car to deliver bananas, but this time I had to use a tricycle because I was afraid of traffic jams and rain. When I got to the market, I was going to the shop that I usually buy from, but it turned out that I only met the vendor’s daughter, not the shop owner, so I had to wait for a long time until the shop owner came back. I was really confused as to why I came by tricycle because I usually come by car. After talking for a while, the shop owner remembered me and bought the Nam Wa bananas, but for the curry bananas, the shop owner said that it was the vegetarian festival and he was afraid that they would not sell, so he refused to accept them. Even though he could not sell the curry bananas, going out to work in the garden and deliver bananas on a day when it was drizzling like this was a good experience. I got to exercise and also got money for the bananas to bring home.

After coming back from the market, I immediately felt refreshed. When I got home, I took the opportunity to go out and explore the garden around the house again. I noticed that my favorite corner that used to be green seemed a bit lonely because the sunlight could not reach it, so I decided to change the position of the flower pots, trees, and flowers that I planted to adapt to the new light conditions. The soft sunlight in the morning hit the leaves, making the garden around the house look lively immediately. Moving the pots and plants felt like arranging the garden. I felt relaxed from touching the flowers and trees.

Evening atmosphere Today, I took the 3 Huas out to the garden. Evening atmosphere In addition to walking with pets, today I also prepared salt for them. I went to read information that the vine helps cows to be healthier. They seem to like it very much. They licked the salt until it was all gone. What's more amazing is that some grasses that grow into old trees, I noticed that the 3 heads don't like to eat them. So I dissolved water and salt and then sprayed them. In the end, my 3 cows went back to eating the old grass that I sprayed with salt water. Back to the garden house, do evening activities as usual. Finished the task of eating dinner with a simple menu made by my wife. Today, the task is complete. I have to say goodbye for now. See you again.
