GARDEN TRUTHS FROM MY FAMILY’S STORIES IS A SERIES OF ESSAYS ON THE AUTHOR’S LIFE GROWING
UP WITH HER GARDENING PARENTS IN WISCONSIN
Gardeners present a quirky way of living life. For this child of parents
who made growing plants a part of everyday living, the memories kept, as well
collected from relatives, developed into a fun retrospective.
Author
Chris Eirschele shares her recollections of growing up with gardening parents
all living in a little pink house in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in an ebook
entitled, Garden Truths From My Family’s
Stories. Made up of eight chapters of comical, sad and inspirational
essays, the pages are dotted with photos from the author’s collection. According
to Eirschele, “The garden became a knowable space where I was at home before I
ever realized these feelings would even matter.” The author’s parents shared
their garden life in their decidedly middle-class Wisconsin home with family
and friends. Sometimes quirky or funny but always sincere, they brought the
gardening life with them wherever they visited.
