Seed to Dust: Marc Hamer

Beautifully illustrated, Seed to Dust is a reflective and restorative account of a life lived in harmony with nature.

Marc 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.
