Description
Forest gardening is a way of working with nature that offers numerous benefits. By mimicking the structure of a healthy natural woodland, forest gardens incorporate a diverse range of plants in vertical layers, including fruit and nut trees, perennial herbs, and vegetables. This approach requires minimal maintenance and has significant environmental advantages. Written by Robert Hart, this comprehensive guide explores the principles and practice of forest gardening, providing guidance on design and maintenance, as well as recommended species for different climates. The book also examines the potential value of forest gardening in countering environmental devastation, drawing on Hart's decades of experience in the Shropshire countryside.
