a seed is an invitation to grow

a seed catalog is a web of invitations
   
                                        a food web
                                        a root web 
                                        a weave
                                        a model 
                                        a seed wants to grow

a seed requires fertile ground
                                        light
                                        water

               as above so below

the seeds that grow tell us about our culture
                                                                               our relationships
                                                                               our participation in the ecosystem

                                               what are we doing with it?

creative participation in life

we are all already whole but are we awake in our seeds?

know your neighbors
the real work is in creating the right environment

show don’t tell
invite don’t force

everything is a study, a response, an exploration when curiosity is allowed to flourish

invite people into a field of presense

get here and choose to stay

we come back to earth by inviting living systems to interact
                     
a seed is a living being sleeping in the container of its potential
made from the matter that created it
a verb contained within a noun
