Lin Xia returns to her hometown to tend the vegetable garden her grandmother left behind. Her parents, who once worked on construction sites, come back to help. The family puts their construction skills to use building trellises and draws on their cafeteria experience to make pickles. Through challenges like late-spring cold snaps and pests, they find their footing with the help of Grandma’s gardening journal and their neighbors. From online orders to supplying restaurants, from growing southern vegetables in the north to hosting countryside team-building events, the garden grows more than just organic produce. It brings the scattered family back together and turns Qingshan Village into a lively rural getaway, where the most reassuring reunion and hope take root.
Authentic and reliable, it writes about rural life.
