Description

Travel writer Misha Gillingham left the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles for a quaint island in the Pacific Northwest so she could get back in touch with what matters most. With the help of stunning photography, she shows how you, too, can cultivate a life of wellness, generosity, and connection to the land.

Misha Gillingham is a travel writer turned farm girl whose story has won over the hearts of fans worldwide. In Blooms & Dreams, Misha shares not only what brought her to Evergreen Acres, a farm on Bainbridge Island in the Pacific Northwest, but also all of the wisdom she has gleaned over the years as she and her family put down roots.

While leading readers on a behind-the-scenes tour of the farm—from her ever-evolving flower garden to the menagerie of animals who keep everyone in good spirits—Misha reflects on her own transformation and shares how joy can be found by contributing to your local community and fostering a deep connection to the land itself.

Blooms & Dreams will inspire readers from all walks of life to consider building a life centered around wellness, giving, and a connection to the land, be it a small patio garden or an entire farm.

"One woman's life-changing decision to rebuild a life centered on wellness, generosity, and a connection to the land. Misha Gillingham is a travel writer-turned-farm-girl whose story has won over the hearts of fans worldwide. In Blooms & Dreams, Misha shares the wisdom she has gleaned over the years as she and her family put down roots on Evergreen Acres in the Pacific Northwest. The book shares the story of why she and her family chose the hobby-farm lifestyle; how they got started; the lay of the land (stroll the garden, the pastures, the bocce ball court); the flowers they grow in abundance; the animals and their barns (goats, sheep, alpacas, dogs, and chickens!); the joy of contributing their bounty to the local community; and, lastly, what this transformative lifestyle has meant to Misha as she reflects on one of the most rewarding experiences of her life"--
