- what does the space have to say?
- who lives here, the birds, the bugs
- what's happening here, decomposition and growth
- what's needed, water from elsewhere, the sun from above, seeds, soil health
- what do we bring into the space, soil compaction, rustling living things, methods as world making, weed pulling
- the ecology of provision
