Growing - A year of living and nurturing with the seasons

Escape into Mona's garden, find peace within these pages."Over the years, I've found solace in gardening, which has allowed me to discover who I truly am. If my mental health feels turbulent, the seasonal rhythm in the garden is a predictable and reassuring constant. Through this book I hope to help you nurture your personal journey through the act of gardening. If you have never gardened before and are feeling intimidated at the thought of getting started, I hope that this book will act as your companion and give you permission to begin." Ramona A love letter and gentle guide to slowing down and being open to the power of nurturing - flora, fauna and yourself - in whatever outdoor space you have, be it a plot, patch or pot.
Mona Jones shares with us the sanctuary she finds outdoors, particularly after her late autism diagnosis. As she describes transforming her small lawn into a wildflower meadow in torrential rain, and collects eggs from her beloved ducks, each season brings self-care lessons, glimmers of joy, and growing opportunities. Spring is a time of reawakening, summer is a time of generosity, autumn brings transformation and winter invites us to slow down.
