Seed to Dust

Marc Hamer has nurtured the same twelve acres of garden for decades. In Seed to Dust, he 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. Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize 2021.
