Escape into Ramona's garden, find peace within these pages.
A love letter, and gentle guide, to the power of nurturing - flora, fauna and yourself - in whatever outdoor space you have, be it a plot, patch or pot.
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.
With simple projects and garden jobs organised by month, this is a practical guide for new and established gardeners alike, framed by Ramona's diary-style reflections.

"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, this book will give you permission to begin." Ramona Jones
