This is what 370 stories look like...
They are the heart of my upcoming book, Cultivating Joy Through Gardening: 365 Daily Meditations.
It’s been a 2-year journey, gathering them all together, and now I have a publish date: May 1, 2027.
I'd love for you to come along with me on this journey by joining my early-interest list. I'll be sharing sneak peeks, some of the line drawings I’m creating for the stories, behind-the-scenes updates, and first word when the book is finally, really, truly published.

So you have a feel for what the book is all about, here's a blurb from the Introduction:
.. In Cultivating Joy Through Gardening, you'll find a year's worth of inspiration that blends the gentle art of gardening with personal growth and wellness.
You'll meet a cast of green-thumb characters, from visionaries like Thomas Jefferson and First Lady Pat Nixon to your neighbor down the street.
Each day:
• You'll be encouraged to embrace the healing qualities of tending a garden, whether it's a clay pot of rosemary on your kitchen windowsill or an acre of cherry trees.
• You'll discover new ways of relating to plants and co-creating with them, whether you're a green thumb or a greenhorn.
• You'll learn to trust a garden's invitation to stop, hit the pause button, and let moments of peace, calm, and gratitude soak in like a warm summer rain.
Use this book to help you cultivate each day—all 365 of them—with green growing things. Let gardening add life to your years and years to your life, one story at a time.
