How to grow great-tasting fruit and vegetables the organic way - free of pesticides and chemicals. Turn your backyard into a thriving permaculture garden

Inspired by her own training in permaculture, Linda Woodrow has devised a totally integrated organic system of gardening that combines science with common sense. In The Permaculture Home Garden she draws us into a warmly welcoming household where everyone shares the planting, helps to tend the hens, and relaxes after a satisfying day's work. Step-by-step instructions and helpful diagrams make it easy to plan and plant a garden to suit your taste and space – a garden that not only looks wonderful but also yields bountiful fruit, herbs and vegetables.

You'll learn how to

• Choose pest-resistant varieties

• Build a chook dome

• Make marvellous compost

• Raise seedlings

• Shun toxic chemicals

• Encourage useful predators

• Avoid garden drudgery

• Pick crisp produce all year round

Grow good food and help save the planet with The Permaculture Home Garden
