Can you believe it? Just a little more than a week before the end of 2024. And what a year it’s been! I’ve been spending these last few weeks of this year tending to my winter garden, and thinking about what seeds to prepare and plant come next spring. In the meantime, I’m still harvesting and putting away this year’s harvests, and also enjoying meeting visitors to Japan from abroad.

"A garden is a grand teacher. It teaches patience and careful watchfulness; it teaches industry and thrift; above all it teaches entire trust." Gertrude Jekyll
