We’re excited to announce a new direction for Gather & Grow. For some time we have been feeling the call to start a publishing house as part of this ministry, to focus on creating more resources for families and books that speak to the family economy across all genres of literature.

Please watch the video below for the full announcement:

    I’m sold. But where do I pre-order the book and donate?

    I didn’t seen anything on the website to do that.

    I purchased this book from Amazon in 2023 and it confirmed so much of what our family felt. I am so excited to hear that you are taking over the publishing rights and getting this book into more hands. Can’t wait for the Kickstarter! God Bless!

    Hi Rory,
    Will your new book be printed here in the United States? Looking forward to supporting you. Thanks for the great time at the self sufficiency summit a few years back. When we get your newsletter my kids always remember playing with Alden in the gravel box.
    Aloha from the Sooriyakumar Family
