Today I watch the movie A man Named Pearl and It really got me think about how we sculpt our world and how this can be part of nature because it is art and organic form. The man Pearl Fryar lives in rural South Carolina where he has a world famous topiary garden. His trees are beautiful and I think you should all take a look. Here is his WEBSITE , and also check out the movie because it is very inspirational.

Very cool--and another good example of how gardening is the coming together of human culture and nature. Of course, it's not vegetables, but beauty's good, too.
I have heard and seen commercials for this but I never got the chance to watch it. Thank you for providing further information on Pearl. I love how he can use nature as not only a means of beautiful natural art, but also as a means to bring the community together.
Great point, Krystina. Community often gets left out of talk about environmental issues--and yet it's really at the heart of things. Environmental degradation is a human problem, and the more we understand about what makes healthy communities thrive, the better able we'll be to create solutions.
