"The garden" from Woodstock by Joni MItchell, refers to the end of the book Candide, by Voltaire, where the protagonists, after having discovered that this is not even close to the best of all possible worlds finally spent their time in the garden, where they worked and made a reasonable, if not particularly exciting, life for themselves.
We get "back to the garden", when we simplify our lives and turn our backs on our "devils bargain" of technology and war and progress and realize that in the end we are only stardust.

Sin got us cast out of the garden. We will return to the garden after us Christians are raptured and the Lord destroys all sin, and we shall have once again, heaven on earth just as it was in the garden of eded.

We can! The 'garden' is symbology for the perfection of life before corruption.
That perfection is ours again for the taking just as soon as we choose to live life in a perfect way.

A reference to the Garden of Eden. Perhaps you got the line from the song "Woodstock" by CSN&Y?

do you mean the Garden of Eden?
It was designed originally so that life on earth would be as that in heaven.

Peace of the soul... our inner secure place - that is the garden. Nobody can touch it - it is perfect!
