About ebook : The Layered Edible Garden: A Beginner's Guide to Creating a Productive Food Garden Layer by Layer - From Ground Covers to Trees and Everything in Between
Design, plant, and tend a self-sustaining, high-yielding food garden that saves space by growing plants the way nature intended-in layers.
Say goodbye to long, straight rows of vegetable plants lined up and waiting for attacks from pests and diseases, and say hello to an interplanted polyculture paradise , filled with layers of edible plants that outcompete weeds, share resources, and grow beautifully together .
In The Layered Edible Garden , author and food gardening pro Christina Chung of @fluent.garden introduces a modern approach to home food gardening that follows nature's lead by growing plants in mixed communities, instead of in agriculture-centric monocultures.
By intentionally including edible plants from 8 different layers (trees, sub-canopy trees, shrubs, vines, perennials, annuals, ground covers, and edible roots) in your home garden, you'll be building a mini "food forest" that will produce food for years to come and require less work and fewer resources .
With the insight found in The Layered Edible Garden , you'll:
[*]Learn how to transform your home's landscape into an edible plant community
[*]Meet dozens of plants in each of the 8 layers
[*]Discover the many perks of growing perennial food crops that return to the garden year after year
[*]Find design and planting advice to make your layered edible garden as attractive as it is productive
[*]Be introduced to intensive planting strategies to organize plant layers in a functional and beautiful way
[*]Acquire info on how to establish new planting areas and how to utilize the existing garden features already present
Whether you have sun or shade, a large growing space or a small one, planting many layers of food plants together results in a diverse, low-maintenance edible garden , filled with plants that help support each other. The future of growing food is multi-layered.
