A Gardens Grace

Sharing wisdom passed down from her grandmother and fellow gardener Mamaw Tribby, Nancy Hutchens brings the finest fruits of her gardening labor – inner peace and happiness – to life in these pages. Threading family anecdotes, recipes, and folklore throughout, she touches on just about every topic dear to a nature lover. And, with a touch of whimsy, she provides everything you need to know as far as gardening fundamentals – and then some – from hands-on gardening tips (it’s wonderful to know which flowers to plant if your garden is shady) to how to make “intoxicating” rosewater, and from composting made easy to how to prepare delicious dishes from your garden’s bounty.
