Gathering the Fruit: A Guide to the Categories

Here, things are gathered slowly.

This blog is a home for the stories I’ve carried with me—the soft ones, the sharp ones, the ones that cling like morning dew. I’ve shaped it like a quiet orchard: each branch holds a different kind of offering.

• Field Notes

  The soil-stained reflections, moments close to the ground, lived and observed in the everyday.

• In The Orchard

  Seasonal life and its rhythms—how light shifts, how we change with it. Here, you’ll also find stories of children, the fruit of women and their tenderness. Sometimes, a good book recommendation for little hands, too.

• Small Graces

  Moments of ritual, gentle care, and stillness—the soul’s simplest restoratives.

• The Wild Peach

  When things don’t go as planned. Stories of resilience, sorrow, wonder, and wilderness.

• The Library Garden

  Books and words that root and bloom—those that have shaped me, and might shape you too.

• Sketches from the Porch

  Photos, fragments, and soft captures. A still frame to hold what can’t always be said in words.

However you arrive here, I hope you’ll feel the slow sweetness of things planted with care.
