Summary: Wendy Johnson and Rob Wilder discuss the early experiences which led Wendy to gardening and to Zen Buddhism, and they discuss her book, “Gardening at the Dragon’s Gate.” One of the central themes of the talk was the metaphor of a “tangle.” Wendy explains, “The inner tangle and the outer tangle, —this generation is entangled in a tangle… It cannot be untangled; we go into the tangle and meet this world.” The mystery of not knowing, the benefits of interacting with soil, the relationship of dharma and farm, this episode is fertile compost for the enrichment of life.<br> <br>
