Quarantine has given us a lot of time on our hands. Now although most of us love binge watching TV shows, sometimes we need a break. Why better way to spend your time than creating your very own garden? Now hear me out - it’s a lot more fun than it sounds and it doesn’t even have to be that big! Gardening is a great way to pass the time all while eventually getting the reward! Spending some time in the sun will give you the vitamin D your body must crave after an entire day of being cooped up inside. Gardening is a great way to relax and it comes with so many health benefits.
