Howard Graham Buffett

My parents had a gardener when I was growing up, and he and I would dig in the dirt together - my mom and dad were definitely not digging with me! When I was 5, he helped me plant some corn in our backyard, and I remember how fascinating it was to watch it grow. Little did I know that 50 years later I'd be growing corn in a different way.

Chinese martial artists consider themselves to be gardeners, and it's an honor for them to take care of this garden, to better it and hand it over to the generations that follow. I think that's a very important message in a time when personal achievement seems to be the only criteria of success.

Gardeners may design, research plants, and consult on landscape projects, beyond just maintenance.

Broader Roles

Gardeners often have a deep appreciation for nature, which reflects in their care for plants.

Passion for Plants

'Gardener' can refer to any person caring for a garden, not only those who are paid.

Not Always Professional

Gardener creatures are vital for ecosystem balance and the survival of many plant species.

Ecosystem Importance

Some 'gardeners' may also contribute by spreading seeds or providing nutrients to soil.

Beyond Pollination

Protection of these 'gardeners' is crucial for gardens and wild plant populations to thrive.

Conservation Efforts

 So I rammed through life as only a Casey can do. And I was an archeologist, and then I broke things. And then I managed a restaurant, and then I slipped on things. And then I was a masseuse. And then I was a landscape gardener. And then I went to business school. And you know, disabled people are hugely educated.
