Grandma's Gardens

Product Information

It’s a tribute to Hillary’s mom, Chelsea’s grandma, and this shared intergenerational, matrilineal practice. She taught Chelsea about gardening and how different gardens are homes for animals, insects and how you can grow your own food. I like that each page spread, while telling the story, has the message in italics about what gardening can do that's important (food, beauty, connectedness) through the story of Hillary's mother who taught her and then Chelsea and Hillary's now teaching her granddaughter's through the natural beauty and caretaking of a garden.
