Blurb

Not everyone dreams of perfect rows of vegetables and neatly labelled garden beds. Broccoli & Other Love Stories is for the gardeners who fall in love with the process instead, the muddy hands, the small wins, the failures, the seasons, and the surprising emotional attachment to a particularly thriving zucchini plant.

Warm, funny, and deeply personal, Paulette Whitney blends gardening memoir with practical insight, exploring what it really means to grow food and build a life around it. It’s thoughtful without being precious, full of gentle observations about nature, home, and the quiet satisfaction of watching something flourish because you cared for it.

About the Author

Paulette Whitney writes with warmth, honesty, and the kind of perspective that makes everyday rituals feel meaningful. A passionate gardener and storyteller, she approaches growing food not as a pursuit of perfection, but as an ongoing relationship with the seasons, the soil, and the rhythms of home life.

Through her writing, Whitney captures the emotional side of gardening, the patience, humour, small disappointments, and unexpected joys that come with tending something over time.
