1) growing vegetables. I haven't done much for a few years, and I have loved setting up a no dig system at my new allotment. My house is full of seedlings. I think growing from seed, and seeing a plant develop helps you feel that time is moving on.
2) Since I am setting up from scratch, but know something about what I'm doing I am in a pretty privileged position. I started to document my thought process and write a blog at https://watchingplantsgrow.com. Then I soon remembered that I a) suck at design and b) prefer writing to design. So I just paid someone a small amount of money to design it nicely. I have a few unpublished blogs ready to go up when it is live. I know we like text blogs here, but I think a gardening site needs pictures. One of the struggles with gardening is knowing when to do stuff, so I am starting a newsletter where I can say what I am sowing this week. Maybe some people will find it useful (in the Northern hemisphere!)
