Reviews

"Within each chapter are many projects that you can readily accomplish at reasonable cost and time. In fact, you might scratch your head and think....why haven't I done that. Do not scold yourself because with this book in hand, you can do it! Follow these permaculture suggestions and you will become a better informed and more eco-conscious gardener." * George Graine, The Graine Thumb *
"This is a must-need book in your gardening library." -- Maria Colletti, author of Terrariums: Gardens Under Glass * Shepherd.com *
