Hi, I am Paul, an amateur gardener, pediatrician, and population health scientist. Gardening has been my occupation, pass-time, physical activity, voluntary service, and source of food. Between school, family life, clinical or population health practice and research, gardening has found space in my life. On this web page, I will write about my gardening experiences and I will feature some plants from our home garden. In addition, I will discuss health effects of gardening and green space. I welcome guest or regular contributors.
