Description
A love letter to the seasons, for anyone who has ever brought home a branch from a walk and wondered what to do with it. In Once Around the Sun, Lisa Przystup opens the door to her home in the Western Catskills and shares the rituals that tie her days to nature's rhythms: decorating with found materials, cooking with what's in season, and gathering friends around a thoughtfully set table.

Product Overview
Using the four seasons as a framework, this book is a mindful guide to creating your own seasonal rituals. "What's in Season" celebrates flowers, fruits, and vegetables at their peak. "At the Table" offers down-to-earth ideas for seasonal arrangements and tablescapes. "Celebrating the Season" shares simple, beautiful DIY projects. Each chapter closes with a gentle to-do list for slowing down and really living in the season. Creative friends chime in with their own ways of marking the year, and the atmospheric photography captures the quiet magic of country life, no farmhouse required.
What Makes It Special
It's a book you can read all year, one season at a time, which makes it a lovely gift for a new homeowner, a gardener, or anyone trying to look up from their phone more often. A single trip once around the sun covers nearly 600 million miles, so you might as well enjoy the scenery.
