What's going on everyone? Welcome back to our final episode with Ben Hale of Easy Living

Yards. So this whole week we've gone through quite a bit about landscaping and we've kind of

gone from the practical to the

relational to now how do rock being a parent gardener that is with the title of

today's episode and so I'm not a parent. So I think what I'm going to do is lean on Ben. And what are you talking about here when you're saying how to rock being a parent gardener? What does that mean to you? Sure I'm excited to

bay back here one last time so thanks for having me Kevin so what I mean by

rocking being a parent gardener is if we tie this all the way back to our first episode we talked about living with purpose right and so understanding that having a beautiful landscape isn't necessarily our life purpose or isn't necessarily

about living with intent.

So understanding what is your purpose and what is living with intent for you.

So a lot of us here might be here because part of our purpose or

intent is healthy food for our families, right? Growing healthy food or

getting a little bit back to the land closer to our roots. So likewise, some of it for us and for me personally

is being a good parent, being a good father, good mother to our kids and helping them grow into wonderful people that can go out and explore the world

and make a positive impact in their own way. So that's what I mean by Rock being a parenting

gardener is sharing some of your love with your passion with your kids so they can then interpret it the way they want to and the way they can grow best and develop for them personally.

Yeah, no I couldn't agree more.

Of course I don't have children like I've said but I what I've recognized in

working on Epic Gardening is coming to the reader or the

listener or the watcher where they are.

So for me that means, you know, I do little

Instagram stories or I do little little YouTube videos because the younger people are and I'm not that

old myself I feel like I'm sounding like I'm 80 but we you have to come to to a new mind about gardening where they're at in their life right and so you know in my world that means putting it on social media platforms that the demographic that I would love to influence is on, right?
