Permaculture tends to be very much in the domain of home gardeners
and property owners. But what if we could take it all a step
further, and merge the fields of permaculture and market gardening?
In The Permaculture Market Garden, author Zach Loeks brings
together his passion for sustainable permaculture food production
systems and beautiful, vibrant illustrations to provide a highly
visual guide to the smooth integration of permaculture into the
market garden, in ways that are scalable to specific situations.
Profiling crops and ecosystem-based techniques, Loeks demonstrates
a profitable, sustainable and approachable model for the future of
market gardening. Along the way, Loeks introduces his own system of
PermaBeds, season extension techniques, intensive and rotational
interplanting, in-depth discussions on soil health, and more,
bringing activities, designs and prospects of farming to life
through illustrations, so the reader can be immersed within the
world of permaculture farming. Playful, informative and curious,
inspiring and beautiful and packed with accessible practical
information, The Permaculture Market Garden will inspire both the
seasoned market gardener as well as anyone aspiring to start a
business. Zach Loeks is a market gardener, farm consultant and
educator living in the Ottawa Valley. Winner of two regional awards
for sustainability and innovation in agriculture, he shares his
expertise in farming, design and business through a successful
series of on-farm workshops, conferences and schools, as well as a
successful year-round CSA.
