Video: The Barefoot Grower 

If you need something to warm you up this week, take a look at this video from Anna Greenland, The Barefoot Grower, in her colorful garden in Cornwall, England. Anna grows vegetables, herbs and flowers without pesticides and sells them to local restaurants.

Anna explains on her blog:

I'm passionate about growing my own food and building this into my everyday life. In a fast-paced world where food convenience often comes before health, I think our future well-being as humans relies heavily on looking closer to home for our food source. No matter how small your space is, there is something so simple and natural about eating produce you have nurtured from seed. It is a process that reconnects us with nature and the planet as a whole.
