Seed to Dust

Marc Hamer tends a garden that doesn’t belong to him, his relationship with its absent owner though remote gradually becomes less distant as he forms a deep and respectful connection to the land in his charge.
It’s tricky to categorise this book, part seasonal garden diary, part meditation on the joys and challenges of gardening and part celebration of being in the moment with growing things.
Whichever way you look at it this is an uplifting and life affirming read, and a book to return to again and again.
