While I’m not a fan of the “Chicken Soup” book series, Chicken Soup for the Gardener’s Soul is actually an excellent book, if not a bit sappy, about the trials and tribulations of gardening.
The book focuses on the spiritual and physical rewards of working with the earth, and how gardening can enrich individuals, families, and communities. Here’s an example of the chapters: Blossoming Friendships, The Family Tree, Love in Bloom, The Seasons of Life, Overcoming Obstacles and Potpourri.
The book is available on-line through Powell?s Books, one of the largest independent bookstores in the United States.
