Author Talk: Perennial Ceremony of Gardening with Teresa Peterson

“Gardening is a ceremony,” says author Teresa Peterson in her new book, “Perennial Ceremony.” Through prose, poetry, illustrations and recipes, Teresa takes readers through the four Dakota seasons and shares the healing, reclamation and wholeness that connection with the Earth can bring. In this episode, Teresa welcomes Odia Wood-Krueger and special guest host Rebecca Crooks-Stratton to her home to talk about the book and share how it can be brought into the classroom.
