About this ebook
Readers follow along step-by-step as Benjamin plants and cares for his garden and imagines the harvest to come. Benjamin loves springtime. The grass grows bright green, the birds sing sweet songs and, best of all, Benjamin and his mother start their garden. In just the right order, they plant corn, beans and squash together for Three Sisters Soup. They plant strawberries to serve with bannock. Then zucchini, tomatoes, cucumbers. And while he and his mother lovingly tend to their garden and watch it grow, Benjamin dreams about the fall, when they’ll have all the ingredients for a harvest feast – and everyone will be invited! This heartwarming journey through the growing season celebrates the joys and rewards of having one’s own garden.
