Ashley, Colin, Meadow and Maiah Maiarano

Mamaroneck, New York

Colin is 10 and his favourite activity in the garden is checking in on the worms in the compost heap and in the wormery!  He loves cucumbers and adores pulling out carrots and potatoes.

Meadow is 6 and says she loves to listen to the sound of the animals when she’s out gardening and composting.

Maiah is 4 and her favourite thing about gardening is aerating the compost with the compost crank and seeing the worms hard at work. She also says she’s no longer scared of the cute little mice that live there.

Ashley says she loves the ease of no dig and knowing that she’s building soil and soil health which leads to healthy dinners for her family. She says gardening has brought them together. They enjoy their nightly watering ritual. And she’s so proud of her kids who help give no dig tours. They teach adults to use their imagination to visualize the universe which is the soil food web under their feet!
