The Last Garden: A Memoir

Embark on a gardener's personal journey that begins and ends in Vermont, with settings as varied as the Adirondacks, a New York suburb, coastal Florida, and Oxfordshire, England. With detailed, monochrome drawings by botanical illustrator Bobbi Angell, The Last Garden delineates the practical aspects of gardens and plants as we face the perils of climate change, food scarcity, and pollinator decline; the healing power of gardens; and the importance of mentors in a gardening life.Writer Liza Ketchum profiles the gardeners whose techniques and wisdom influenced her life and helped shape her life and the gardens she created. She shares the myriad ways that gardens have provided beauty, comfort, and inspiration during periods of change, loss, and renewal, and offers inspiration for readers to create their own garden, whether on a city balcony, a suburban yard, or a larger country plot.
