Every morning, the artist Geraldine Javier with her dog Freya starts work by walking out into her garden to gather leaves, flowers, and occasionally bits of bark. “Garden” here may not be the most accurate word. She lives on an old farm 2.3 hectares (5.7 acres) large. Part of it is now clearly a garden, with flowering plants, but part still is a farm (she wants the community around her to survive as far as possible on the vegetables from it).
