In the Garden with Billy: Lessons about Life, Love and Tomatoes
Description:
One woman: far from home and struggling to accept her mother's terminal illness. One man: recently widowed, and maintaining the old ways of farming; while being surrounded by urban sprawl. One story: about what happens when a harried suburban mom reaches out to help a stranger. A chance encounter on a busy Atlanta summer day turns into an unexpected friendship for Renea Winchester. She's in a hurry, running to her daughter's tennis lesson and away from the reality of her mother's illness when her daughter notices a primitive sign on the side of the road which reads, "Baby Goats 4 Sale." Even though Renea has no interest in smelling goats, she pulls into the drive on that hot day and meets a man who would change her life. Wearing faded cotton overalls, and walking with a slight stoop, seventy-seven year old Billy Albertson shakes Renea's hand and captures her heart. Join these unusual friends in the garden as they lean on each other, push through obstacles, and face life's challenges with integrity and hope.
