Grow your own seasonal food in a low maintenance, nature-friendly
garden that feels like a woodland glade. Scottish plant expert Alan
Carter shows you how to plan and plant a temperate forest garden
for any sized plot-from a small terrace garden to an allotment or
smallholding. Learn how to successfully layer root crops, fruit,
perennial vegetables and edible shrubs below tree crops,
cultivating an edible garden that doesn't look like a traditional
vegetable plot. A forest garden is wildlife friendly, provides
nutrient-dense and often unusual food through every season, and
requires minimal work to maintain. The first part of this in-depth,
practical guide explains how a forest garden works, how to map your
climate and design your own plot, and how to manage it with
mulching, weeding and pruning. What's not to like about Alan's
motto of "the more you pick, the more you get," and intriguing
concepts such as the Panda Principle? The second half of the book
is a detailed directory of more than 170 plants and fungi suitable
for a wide range of temperate climates, complete with growing,
harvesting and cooking tips based on over a decade of Alan's own
experience. Learn how to incorporate traditional fruit and
vegetable crops, such as strawberries and beans, into your forest
garden, and how to weave in more unusual crops, such as shiitake
mushrooms and ferns. Techniques from agro-ecology bring
regenerative farming into the backyard, helping you to work towards
greater self-sufficiency. Useful tips on seed saving and
propagation help keep plant costs low, and there is practical
advice on soil health, compost-essential for all no dig, organic
gardeners-and pests and disease. A Food Forest in Your Garden will
help you create your own productive forest gardens even in cooler
climates.

moral and political philosophy.
