My mother, is a woman who loves agriculture a whole lot. Her love for agriculture made her grow a garden of different crops in the compound.


My mum, has always been known for her home remedies. She strongly believes that nature holds the foundation of good health.
When ever me or my siblings fell ill, she would turn to her garden for help.


One of the most reliable remedies was the guava leaves juice. When ever anyone among us is feeling sick, of either cough or cold, she would steep some guava leaves in a hot water to make a healing tea.
