The Gift of a Garden Résumé

The Gift of a Garden Alice Taylor

A book of wisdom and life.

Welcome to Alice Taylor's garden:

'Just inside the gate, hand-painted on a rickety piece of timber, is a little sign: Miracles only grow where you plant them. I saw it in a garden centre and could not resist it. This garden is full of my lack of resistance. I have no in-depth gardening knowledge and I work on impulse.

'My gardening expertise, acquired through trial and error, is nurtured by the unbelievable pleasure that I have discovered in simply digging the earth. Where does that satisfaction come from? Maybe buried deep in each of us is the secret need to cultivate the soil. Digging the earth breathes life back into us.'

A reflective and uplifting account by Alice Taylor of her love of nature and gardening.

The Gift of a Garden Avis

Each sentence seems like a story that you never want to end. I will not even try to explain her acquisition of a huge, heavy statue of St. Stephen or a roof garden. Best for the author to describe Innishannon's conversion to tree landscaping. This book will reveal Taylor's sheer joy of gardening, her detailed local knowledge and expertise, and her storytelling abilities. Entertaining and insightful, Taylor will provide much food for thought while revealing the beauties of her part of the world
