Dad and daughters work side by side as they discover the importance of weeding, seed planting, watering and more. All three characters get dirty while learning about the growing cycle. Travel through spring planting, summer growing and fall harvesting all in one day as dad inspires the girls to spread the secret of Growing In The Garden.
