Wherever You Place Your Roots

There’s been a huge resurgence in gardening the last five years and leading the way - Millennials!
Great news yesterday on the gardening front – according to a Huffington Post article and reiterated in a Ball Publishing newsletter, there’s been a huge resurgence in gardening the last five years. The most exciting factoid listed - Millennials are the fastest-growing segment of this gardening population. To point out some other interesting notes, take a peek at these two articles worth the read. One discusses sustainable cities and the role landscape architects play in it all while this other article speaks to the challenges of cities when Millennials have babies and the burbs beckon them away. Rather than delve into the specifics and what makes some leave the cities or stay, the important #FridayFeeling of it all –statistics say millennials are engaged in this next wave of #green. It is the importance of the landscape, the natural environment that millennials stay connected to, wherever they place their roots.  With the role of landscape architects so critical to the future, leading by example and being a mentor naturally creates the next wave!

Staying connected to the natural environment is what's important wherever the roots are placed.
