The January selection for my book club, By The Book is A Season For Tending by Cindy Woodsmall.

n a community where conformity flourishes, seeds of Rhoda’s odd behavior were planted long ago. Can she cultivate her relationships with the same care and tenderness that she gives her beloved garden?
Old Order Amish Rhoda Byler’s unusual gift and her remarkable abilities to grow herbs and berries have caused many to think her odd. As rumors mount that Rhoda’s “gift” is a detriment to the community, she chooses isolation, spending her time in her fruit garden and on her thriving canning business.

sounds like a lovely read 🙂
My group loves Cindy Woodsmall. We were introduced to her when we won the first 2 books in her Sisters of The Quilt series. We had a phone interview with her too!
