Lennox Dobson

When Mom and Dad offered Lennox a collection of garden plant seeds, they were thinking of a nicely distributed garden. They soon realized that Lennox had planted his very own “Garden of Chaos”. He planted everything wherever it landed. Only 6 years old, Lennox has become quite the gardener, farming his own parsley, cilantro, pumpkin, tomato, carrots, green onions, cantaloupe, and beans. His mother, Samantha, encourages him to care for his Garden of Chaos as he is learning the importance of our food ecosystem, such as how soil nutrients, water quality, human health, climate, and food exist in a delicate balance that if disturbed leads to an unsustainable system.

Keep On LV’ing the Good Life, Lennox.
