Seed to Dust: A Gardener`s Story

Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize 2021Marc Hamer has nurtured the same twelve acres of garden for decades. It`s rarely visited so he is the only person who fully knows its secrets. But it`s not his garden, and his relationship with its owner is at once distant and curiously intimate.In `Seed to Dust`, Marc takes us month-by-month through his experiences both working in the garden and outside it. We encounter new plants and wildlife, gardening folklore and the joys of manual work; we learn, too, about Marc`s path from homelessness to family contentment, and the cycles of change that run through both the garden`s life and our own.”An absorbing combination of memoir, gardening folklore and natural history” Country Life”Life-affirming… Absorbing” Sue Stuart-Smith, author of `The Well-Gardened Mind`
