We owe our beautiful garden to a practical and rational division of responsibilities. Each family member is assigned tasks so work is in full swing. I wanted to advise other readers on how to organize their work, using the potential of each family member.
Works for womenIt is worthwhile for ladies to arrange the space. My mother does it here. It is she who prepares seedlings of flowers and vegetables, which she then plants. In summer, he works in the garden for several hours a day, caring for, fertilizing, transplanting and watering even the smallest plants. It is thanks to my mother that our garden is fragrant, colorful and… tasty! She also takes care of the flowers on the terrace.
Classes for menMen are best suited to exercise, technical and planning work. And yes, Dad is trimming ornamental shrubs. In spring, it also always whitens the trunks of fruit trees to protect them from various insects. It also constantly makes the garden look more attractive. And this will make a wooden lantern, a windmill or a gazebo. He devotes a lot of time and heart to each such decoration. And how accurate it is! First, he makes sketches, then measures each board, cuts it, etc. Dad also made dumplings of mushrooms for the garden and built a grill, on which we prepare delicious dishes during the season.
Responsibilities of children and young people
Children and young people can be assigned easier jobs such as mowing, raking and sweeping. My brother and I mow the grass every week during the summer season. It is not as easy as it may seem. You have to mow thoroughly, because then the lawn will be ugly. You should also choose the right time (in the morning heat, and on cooler days, preferably after 4 p.m.).Together with my brother, we also try to help parents in their current work.You could say that we have created a real family gardening company.
