I have a tendency to garden barefoot. Or in my rubber wellies with pirate skulls on them if there are prickles in the weeds, although I can walk across gravel and snow barefoot and be fine. My feet never get cold, the rest of me however, stays cold.

Hi String, it would be nice to garden barefoot, but I grow a lot of cacti, we also have those little swarming ants, so not so easy. I do wear sandals a lot though. Sometime when I'm working on my bonsai, I will bring one inside, guess I could garden barefoot then. I'm still looking for the best kilt to garden in. Probably will end up being the same kind I do ceramics in. Although, I kind of would like to have a belted plaid to garden in during the winter.

Ya, I don't have cacti or icky ants. we do have Canadian thistles and stinging nettles though, but those are pretty easy to avoid. I'm just so much less of a clutz when I can feel the ground, which is probably why I can't bear to give up my poor worn out faux-chucks from kmart.

It's considered a noxious weed, probably brought here as seed attached to something. Possibly attached to one of those horrid birds. My campus is covered in goose poop, and people regularly get attacked by them (funny as heck to watch from a distance.)

You got to have some direct contact with the earth too. I'm thinking about getting some moccasin boots to go with my BK kakhi. I think that would look alright. I grew up in part with people from the Zuni and Navajo tribes. I'm thinking about looking back to them for accessorizing and so on.

Well, as far as I care, the wool watering hose is the only good kind. Those PV watering hoses just look aughful and forget the achrylic watering hose. An eight yard wool watering tank is the only way to go.

As long as it is a full 16oz wool watering tank. Otherwise it is just to light and won't swing right.
