They may dream of turning a garden hobby into a whole new lifestyle.  They might dream of overhauling the existing space &#8211; replacing the boring lawn with something more eco-friendly and beautiful, or creating a new, wildlife-friendly master planting scheme, such as a pond, bog garden or woodland garden, for example.  They may dream of enhancing their self-sufficiency and growing more of their own food.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-2\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>The options are nearly endless, but all dream gardeners have one thing in common.  They have great plans and goals, but they are not yet on the path to actually achieving it.  In today&#8217;s busy, money-oriented world, it is not always easy to find time for the things that we are truly passionate about and deeply care about.  But 2022 is the year that puts your garden passion project front and center.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-4\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>Whatever your passion project, this year it&#8217;s time to turn it into a reality.  Big dreams may not come true all at once, but by wasting some time and paying attention to the problems and opportunities you face, and by taking things slowly and steadily, one step at a time, you can turn your dreams into reality.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"heading-toc\" id=\"toc-make-plans-and-a-design-for-your-project\"\/> <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-6\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block green-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"> <span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text\">    Make plans and design for your project <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-7\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>As a permaculture garden designer, I help gardeners translate their plans and ambitions into practical and realistic designs.  We use visual concept plans to develop complete planting plans and implement schedules that help clients realize their gardening dreams.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-9\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>Not everyone will need help bringing out their passion projects;  But learning more about permaculture design may help you understand the process and thus give you a framework for sustainable garden design in which you can create your own plan.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-11\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>Whether you hire a permaculture designer or take matters into your own hands, articulating your ideas and creating some kind of blueprint for your future business will be key.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"heading-toc\" id=\"toc-identifying-strengths-weaknesses-opportunities-and-threats\"\/> <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-13\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block green-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"> <span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text\">    Identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-14\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>If you&#8217;re really determined to focus on your passion project this year, it can be helpful to build a clear situation analysis that can further help you shape your strategies and help you avoid some common pitfalls.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-16\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>This means that you should look at the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that can move things forward and hold them back.  Remember to look at the garden itself and your own situation in relation to it, in order to get a clearer picture of your project.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-18\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>This type of analysis can sometimes be useful in identifying things that may need to be addressed urgently to ensure that you are achieving your goals.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-20\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>One of the main threats to large garden projects is often time constraints.  So, then consider how you can make some changes in your life to make more time for the things you&#8217;re really passionate about.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-22\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>We should all find more time in our lives for the things we love to do and that really make us happy.  Just because we don&#8217;t get paid for something or make money from it doesn&#8217;t mean we shouldn&#8217;t approach it carefully and thoughtfully.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-24\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\">\n<p>Making plans, creating a design, and analyzing our situations with level heads can help us make sure that our emotional projects are much more than fanciful dreams, whatever they may be.  This will give us a firm foundation on which to work as we slowly make our dreams a reality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many gardeners dream of making something truly amazing in their gardens.
