A fable with ecological ethical and moral values

Once upon a time there was a small arugula growing in an organic garden. From its birth, arugula learned the values of sustainability and respect for nature.

Arugula always shared its nutrients with the other plants in the garden, helping them grow strong and healthy. It was also responsible for maintaining balance in the ecosystem, attracting beneficial insects and keeping away harmful ones.

One day, a child visiting the orchard was fascinated by the beauty and aroma of arugula. He decided to take it home to enjoy its freshness in his own kitchen. However, arugula knew that its place was in the garden, where it could continue to contribute to the well-being of all.

With courage and wisdom, the arugula explained to the child the importance of leaving it in the garden, allowing it to continue to play its role in the cycle of life. The boy understood and decided to leave her in her original home, promising to always take care of her and respect her.

Since that day, arugula continued to grow in the garden, being an example for everyone of how to live in harmony with nature and value the importance of every living being on our planet.
