Book Details

A journey from the origins of the universe to your table.

Science and spirituality converge on a poetic, mindful meander that brings the garden to the kitchen in A Walk in the Garden—a genre-defying book featuring easy-to-follow recipes using vegetables, fruits, and herbs gathered from organic gardens. These recipes, which use both traditional and modern cooking techniques such as sous vide and the Instant Pot®, are seamlessly integrated with timely, topical treatises on racism, gender-based violence, climate change, and other pressing problems of humanity and the planet, and interspersed with human history and the origins of the universe. Rich in accessible scientific evidence and humanism, paths through the garden lead to an irrefutable, transcendent mysticism that blossoms into the interconnectedness of all beings across all times. A Walk in the Garden is a unique and thoughtful gift for gardeners, cooks, scientists, and all who endeavor to connect their spirituality with humanity and planetary sustainability—a gift that speaks directly to the challenges of our troubled times.
