by Ciaran de Buitlear (Author), Cynthia S. Reyes (Editor)

It's spring 2020 in a small Irish town. Ciarán is reading in the greenhouse when the phone rings.
What follows will change his life, his family, and the patch of ground he thought he understood.

This isn't a step-by-step gardening manual. It's an Irish garden memoir, the story of an ordinary one-acre garden that becomes a refuge, for wildlife, for neighbours, and for a mind that has never quite managed to feel at home in the world.

As lockdown closes in, Ciarán throws himself into the work: leaving corners wild, growing food without chemicals, building habitats instead of tidy borders. Along the way he starts to unpick years of exhaustion, anxiety, and not fitting in, and to ask what it means to live well on a damaged planet.

Caring changes us.
We find meaning in doing.
Collaboration gives us place.Who it's for
  • Gardeners curious about wildlife-friendly, chemical-free growing
  • Readers who enjoy nature writing and memoir
  • Anyone drawn to Ireland, lockdown-era stories, and community change

Nature's Acre is part wildlife-garden diary, part community story, part attempt to steady a nervous system with soil under the fingernails. It's for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the world, and wonders if there might be another way to live in it.
