## Resource

Our story tonight is called The Garden Center, or, The Left-Handed Snail, and it’s a story about a quiet corner of the plant nursery where a slow moving community is coming together. It’s also about push brooms and dropped leaves, shadows in the gloaming, and something rarer than a four leaf clover. Subscribe to our ⁠Premium channel⁠.
