Caribbean Gardening Traditions — What the Elders Know Before soil tests and garden apps, Caribbean elders relied on inherited wisdom—planting by the moon, brewing herbal medicine from backyard leaves, and using proverbs to guide the rhythm of the land. This episode is a journey back to the roots: a soulful exploration of how gardening traditions carried healing, memory, and spiritual protection through generations. We’ll unpack bush remedies, lunar planting, companion planting, garden blessings, and the oral storytelling that made every harvest more than food—it made it family. Whether you're starting a small plot or honoring your lineage, this guide is your invitation to listen, grow, and remember.
