The Ecological Gardener

The Ecological Gardener will give you the tools to create an abundant, healthy garden from the soil up—a garden that welcomes birds and bees and allows native planting and wild flowers to flourish, with minimal carbon impact or need for fresh water. This book can guide both novice and experienced gardeners alike in their journey to a more ecological approach, and is full of practical projects and information, including:                       

• Finding the right design for your space

• Creating a wildflower meadow

• Building rainwater catchments and other tips for water conservation

• Making compost from kitchen waste, leaf mold, compost tea and more

• Creating a space for wildlife such as hedgehogs, bees and other pollinators

• Finding beauty in your garden during the winter

Matt will show you how to re-imagine how you garden, working with nature instead of controlling it, to create a space that promotes both wildlife and beauty.
