The Sentimental Gardener

About the Substack

Hi! I'm Cass, and this is where I record what I grow in my garden and why I grow them.

Part journal, part therapy and part memory keeper.

Welcome!

About Cass Dowding

I write The Sentimental Gardener to share stories of our gardens and how the outer world heals our inner worlds.
I'm an everyday, enthusiastic gardener trying to spread the magic of plants.
