My Baba's Garden

Jordan Scott

A young boy visits his grandmother, Baba, each morning before school and shares food she prepares from her garden. Her past experience of scarcity shapes how she keeps and handles food, while he notices the care behind her actions. On walks to school, she looks for worms to bring to the garden. Through their time together, the boy understands that the worms nourish the soil and comes to understand her love.
