The Terre Vivante guide to self-sufficiency in the garden
Recipes for building a self-sufficient garden and making a living from it.
Produce your own vegetables, herbs and fruit, harvest your own honey and eggs... in the most autonomous and economical way possible!
This book brings together the advice and know-how of a dozen expert organic gardeners and breeders. They show us how to adopt gardening techniques that allow us to intervene as little as possible (tillage, green manures, mulching), to gain in productivity without having to resort to external inputs (compost and soil improvers, associated crops, natural care, preserving beneficial organisms), but also how to produce our own seeds, and run a henhouse and apiary in an ecological way. Last but not least, 40 vegetable, fruit, berry and herb cultivation sheets put the practical into practice!
Everything you need to create a nourishing vegetable garden and productive smallholdings that respect biological balances, using local resources and recycled materials, and at low cost to the gardener. In short, this is the kind of book you need if you feel like a Robinson!
Learn how to make your garden an island of nourishment!
