The seed keeper : a novel / Diane Wilson.

Summary:

"One snowy winter's day, Rosalie Iron Wing returns to the home from which she was taken as a child. Orphan, widow, and mother--journalist and gardener--Rosalie has spent the previous two decades watching as her white husband's family farm is threatened first by drought and then by a predatory chemical company. Now, grieving, she finally begins to confront the past and embrace the future--and, in the process, learns what it means to be descended from women with souls of iron, women who have protected their families, their traditions, and a precious cache of seeds through generations of hardship and loss." --from back cover.
