Award-winning garden writer Mary Agria tackles the challenge of multi-climate gardening in An Itinerant Gardener’s Book of Days, a year-long journey through the world of gardens and gardeners. Sunbirds and Snowbirds from California to New York, Northern Michigan to the Desert Southwest will find humor, inspiration, technical tips and a fascinating glimpse into the history of gardens, calendars, ancient gardening customs and so much more in this thoughtful glimpse into the gardener’s life. Author Agria was winner of the Michigan Garden Clubs’ feature writing competitions in 2017, 2018 and 2019 for her column on gardening and spirituality that has run in Northern Michigan newspapers since 2006. Fifty-two of the columns were also featured in her previous work, Through the Gardener’s Year. Her gardening novels-Time in a Garden [a regional best-seller in 2006], Garden of Eve, From the Tender Stem and Range of Motion [2019]-have also won her acclaim from readers and reviewers from coast to coast.
