JUST RELEASED PERMACULTURE BOOK
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.
