Growing organic vegetables

Day 2 at #challengeonnaturephotography

These are photos of growing plants organically, and creating a "kitchen garden" in a country (Guatemala) where it's most unusual to have an restaurant serving organic food, much less from their own garden (on the hotel's grounds, in a very modest, non-tourist town on Lake Atitlan).

To these gardeners, it was definitely about living in harmony with their year-round growing season.

Nature comes in guises both familiar and wild; both are worth celebrating.
