Paula Larson gardens in Tacoma, Washington — growing veggies, perennials and native plants with her spouse, Julie, and their geriatric kitty, Ursula (aka “Monster”). Paula created her accessible garden by building raised cedar beds while scooting on her bum on her deck; then Julie put them in place and helped fill them with soil. When not digging in the dirt (or freelance writing), Paula works with people who have intellectual disabilities by helping them enjoy recreational activities. She also works for the Tacoma Nature Center, bird watches, rolls 5K races and dabbles in wheelchair basketball and tennis.
