Publisher's Synopsis
Gardens and farms often yield well. Sometimes they don't. But they always require skills, patience, work...and much dedication. Here are thirty offerings of rhymes, raps, essays and tales that bring you to the wild, idyllic worlds of Sunny Cove Farm, Hilltop Farm, and other special places where magic and wonder abound in all seasons. Herb E. Vore, their imaginary editor and coach, inspired and harvested these unique pieces from the works of Debra Raye King and Thomas Wayne King. Sunny Cove Farm, where Debbi and Tom raise and tend their wool flock of Registered Icelandic Sheep, is featured, as well as their old-growth forest homestead, and life on Debbi's family Hilltop Farm, a dairy operation. Critters and chlorophyll colleagues come alive with these authors' skilled touches, providing unique readings of active rural lives now and in the past.
