It’s a Wonderful Life in the Garden takes children to a beautiful garden where a dynamic group of vegetables lives with their engaging leader, Archie Artichoke.

In this adventure, Archie and his friends find a mysterious bottle containing a treasure map and a strange riddle about a menacing troll that guards a magical genie able to grant wishes. The vegetable friends must travel into a dark forest, outsmart the troll, and decide the wishes to receive from the genie. In the process, they learn a valuable lesson: You must be careful what you wish for – you might just get it!
