"While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease" (Genesis 8:22).

All the earth is a garden-full of beauty and decay, untimely ends and new beginnings, promises and possibilities. You are invited to treasure these beautiful reflections on the soul-healing gifts the garden graciously yields, revealing that gardening can be more than a hobby-it can be embraced as a way of life.

As you explore how the garden grows roots, connection, wholeness, and hope, you'll gain greater perspective on what matters most in life.
