Poet and teacher Jenna Butler bought a piece of land near Barrhead with her husband in 2006. Together, the two of them start their dream of growing their own food to be more self-sufficient, while maintaining jobs in the city. These essays address the things that Butler has learned in that time. The essays are poetic, thoughtful and very aware of nature and the practice of working with nature.

Recommended.

(I also realized just how much I like personal essays while reading this book)
