Gardening for the Soul

by Jim Wiggins

Overview

Gardening for the Soul is not a "how to" book about gardening. The authors, Jim and Colleen lost two of their adult children to cancer. During those difficult periods they kept busy in their gardens, discovering that they were not only taking care of their gardens, but that the gardens were taking care of them by providing healing. The book is designed to bring comfort to anyone who is facing difficult times, whether it be the loss of a job or a loved one. There are dozens of quotations, ranging from Thomas Jefferson to Martha Stewart.
