There seems to be so many issues across the world that are fighting for our attention. In the midst of a world that appears to be spiralling out of control on many fronts, to Plant a Garden is to care for what remains and to bring beauty and order to that which is in our control.
This designed is based off of Kyle's song Plant a Garden which explores the idea that instead of worrying about all the things that are beyond our control… maybe the best thing we can contribute to the world is to simply care and tend for the small square footage beneath our feet; to plant flowers, to tend a garden, and to care for our neighbourhood. The song proposes the idea: “when there’s chaos around us, we should care from the ground up, and keep growing beautiful things”.

lyrics
Buried underneath the weight dirt
and this forgotten soil
Is there any hope of change?
of rain, of daylight, I don’t know
Feels like it’s gone on like days like this
and when I close my eyes
It’s my one reprieve, I start to dream,
to hope for better times
And a voice it says to me
Don’t lose hope
In the darkness
That’s where roots begin to grow
Don’t lose hope
It’s always darkest
Before the dawn begins to glow
I replied, “I’ve met your kind before,
So please don’t lie to me
I’ve got hope deferred
Your cheques have bounced a time
Or maybe three
Now I’m worn and tired
Yeah I don't have the time or energy
To try to visualise my glass
as anything but half empty
Still the voice it says to me
Don’t lose hope
In the darkness
That’s where roots begin to grow
Don’t lose hope
It’s always darkest
Before the dawn begins to glow
Light will come again
We don’t have to worry ‘bout it
This is not the end
The dark is where the garden started
