Description

From an award-winning artist, designer, and the host of the podcast Design Matters, this book tells the visual story of falling in love with gardening--and the philosophies that work conjures.

Debbie Millman always thought of herself as a bad gardener. Nevertheless, she kept trying. Over the years she came to realize that no one is a bad gardener--a garden is a journey that develops over time, through space, and evolves along with our hearts. In Love Letter to a Garden, Debbie Millman shares her journey to make and grow a garden--and the plants she has collected along the way--a process that started with handed-down houseplants from beloved friends and a lone peony. 

Spread throughout are simple recipes using the garden's ingredients from Millman's wife, bestselling author Roxane Gay. Love Letter to a Garden is a little gem of a book--an inspiring, impulse-friendly story that can be read in one setting, then shared, experienced, pollinated, and perpetuated.  ]]>

Love Letter to a Garden is the story of what it means to plant the seeds of sustenance and watch them grow into nourishment not only for the body but the soul."--Elissa Altman, author of Motherland]]>

Love Letter to a Garden is bold, beautiful, brilliant, and deeply personal. I have never read a book that at once makes me want to plunge my hands in the soil, hug my beloved, and cook a meal." --Jacqueline Woodson, author of Brown Girl Dreaming, winner of the National Book Award]]>

Love Letter to a Garden, I felt my heart opening and my pulse slowing as I remembered that the rhythms of Millman's garden are also the rhythms of humanity--of me.  This book is a modern Gift from the Sea, reminding us that all the joy, wisdom, peace and magic we need is right here in forests, in neighborhoods, in backyards, in a single seed. As Millman awakens our awe for the miraculous planet, perhaps we'll also find the drive to save it."--Glennon Doyle, author of Untamed]]>

Love Letter to a Garden by Debbie Millman recounts how the Design Matters podcaster evolved from a houseplant-killer into an avid gardener and what it taught her about herself." --Publishers Weekly]]>
