Author and illustrator Diana Magnuson pens Garden Sleeping, Garden Growing

In celebration of Earth Day, this encore episode is supported by Diana Magnuson and her book Garden Sleeping, Garden Growing—a gentle reminder of nature’s cycles and the beauty of renewal all around us.   Explore the visible and hidden world of Noriko’s garden from her garden’s point of view, in and around all year long. After the deep snow of winter, her soil is prepared for planting.   Sponsored by Modern History Press, Moravian Sons Distillery, authors Terri Martin, Diana Magnuson and Doc Chavent. Green leaves sprout as plants ripen to fruits and vegetables. Hungry forest animals prowl and pad-pad in to eat them. Insects and birds also aggravate garden, but others are important assistants to her growth. Exuberant and lyrical  Garden’s story explores nature’s wonders that support our lives.    Listen in for a chance to win a signed copy of Garden Sleeping, Garden Growing. Copyright (c) 2026.
