What is Gaia's Garden, Second Edition: A Guide To Home-Scale Permaculture about?

'Gaia's Garden will be recorded in history as a milestone for gardeners and landscapers... An amazing achievement.'--Paul Stamets The classic book about ecological gardening--whatever size your garden--with over 250,000 copies sold!'A great book!'--Men's Journal Gaia's Garden has sparked the imagination of home gardeners the world over by introducing a simple message: working with nature, not against her, results in more beautiful, abundant, and forgiving gardens. Many people mistakenly think that'ecological gardening'—which involves growing a wide range of edible and other useful plants—can take place only on a large, multiacre scale. As Hemenway demonstrates, it's fun and easy--even for the beginner--to create a “backyard ecosystem” by assembling communities of plants that can work cooperatively and perform a variety of functions, including: Building and maintaining soil fertility and structure Catching and conserving water in the landscape Providing a rewilded and biodiverse habitat for beneficial insects, birds, and animals Growing an edible “forest” that yields seasonal fruits, nuts, and other foods This revised and updated edition also features a chapter on urban permaculture
