Grow your garden, flourish your faith

Connect to the plants from the Bible featured in Shelley's books & blog in the Plant Guide.

Soon budding green leaves and blooming flowers will seem to fill your mind and soul with testimonies and reminders of God’s ways.

Your garden will take on a whole new delight!

Taste and See that the Lord is good.
