About the Author
Margaret Roach is a celebrated author, gardener, and former executive editor at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, where she spent over two decades shaping the world of lifestyle publishing before embracing a simpler life in the Hudson Valley. In her memoir 'And I Shall Have Some Peace There: Trading in the Fast Lane for My Own Dirt Road,' she chronicles her bold decision to leave the high-stakes urban world behind for a rustic farmhouse and sprawling gardens, offering readers an intimate look at the joys and challenges of self-sufficiency, nature's rhythms, and personal reinvention. A passionate advocate for sustainable living and organic gardening, Roach draws from her hands-on experiences to inspire others to cultivate peace amid chaos, blending humor, wisdom, and practical insights in her evocative prose.
