Farmer Eva Sommaripa founded Eva's Garden in South Dartmouth, Massachusetts, a place "so close to the ocean, she can smell the sea, so close to woods she can talk to trees." More than 50 years later she has grown a big green garden life of friends and neighbors, creatures that crawl, fly and slither, eve microbes that create rich soil in the brown underground. Meet farmer Eva, and share the magic, beauty, and science of life on the farm and caring for the land.

Farmer Eva's Green Garden Life is one of the first book that focuses on a woman farmer. It is also a story connecting farming with nature, ecology, and science. With an Afterword from Eva, Author's Note, Back Matter and Resource page.
