GAIA'S GARDEN A GUIDE TO HOME SCALE GARDENS
The first book to locate Permaculture in the
American Landscape
Activist Editor Toby Hemenway has assembled a practical and
user friendly guide to backyard permaculture. Skillfully written and full
of examples from the foremost permaculture gardens across the country,
the text introduces permaculture principles at work, explaining the
basics of this ingenious language of design. Chapters cover Soil, Water
Management, and Choice of Plants, as well as more advanced subjects as
Interplanting, Guilds, Forest Gardens and Garden Evolution. Drawing on a
wealth of Permaculture Lessons and Lore, the author documents the
dramatic successes of ordinary men and women in bringing barren
landscapes to life and in doing so, he swings wide the permaculture gate
for all garden lovers to enter.
