Forest gardening : rediscovering nature & community in a post-industrial age (Rev. & updated ed)

Designed to achieve the utmost economy of space and labour, a forest garden is a tiny imitation of a natural forest.

Once established, it requires minimal maintenance, and can provide year-round produce of herbs, fruit, nuts and root and perennial vegetables.

This book includes guidelines on how to design and maintain a forest garden, and lists recommended species for temperate, tropical and sub-tropical climates.
