Through real-life stories and practical gardening tips, Elsheimer explores topics as diverse as napping, simplifying, money management, empty-nesting, solitude, forgiveness, and being present in the moment, inviting novice and expert gardeners alike to enjoy gardening on a new level.
Gardening reminds us that even the humblest daily activities can be prime opportunities to draw closer to God. Full of sound gardening advice and insightful personal stories, Grounded in the Garden will encourage anyone who loves growing things.
