SYNOPSIS: The drive to cultivate the land has always been a part of every culture. It is one of the most important ancient connections between humankind and nature. It means to explore the bounty offered by Mother Nature, and at the same time, her challenges. That is, to adapt work, to the changing seasons and to the biological characteristic of plants.  For the Italian immigrants in Canada, to cultivate the land is not just part of the culture, it is reminiscent of native land. A passion that never dies.

In this documentary, we will follow nine passionate gardeners. We will witness their process of planting and caring for their garden, and more importantly, we will see if they are truly satisfied with their harvest at the end of the season. These are Stories from the Garden.
