The Backyard Parables:Lessons on Gardening, and Life
In her latest book, The Backyard Parables: Lessons on Gardening, and Life, Margaret Roach has harvested thirty years of what she calls her "backyard parables." These parables are deceptively simple, instructive stories collected from a life spent digging deep in the ground around her upstate New York home. In this lyrical memoir of a gardening year, we find her hard-won wisdom laced with humor. She also includes in each chapter her best tips for garden making, discouraging all manner of animal and insect opponents, and
much, much more. Enjoy
