Container Gardening - The Permaculture Way

Permaculture—rooted in centuries-old techniques for growing food with care for the Earth—is the key to raising a bigger harvest than you ever thought possible: on your balcony, patio, driveway, deck, and anywhere in between! In Container Gardening - The Permaculture Way, author Valéry Tsimba writes from her own experience growing a lush permaculture garden on her forty-three-square-foot balcony. Her guiding principle is sustainability: to create biodiversity and share abundance.

Tsimba enthusiastically instructs home gardeners of all skill levels in her proven methods, from start to finish:

• Selecting and preparing planters and tools
• Sowing and transplanting seeds
• Limiting waste and avoiding insecticides
• Watering and increasing fertility
• And increasing your harvest—naturally

With over 120 photos and tables, Container Gardening - The Permaculture Way is an accessible, irresistible guide for everyone—whether a beginning gardener or an expert who's new to the practice of permaculture. Readers will enjoy fresh, home-grown fruits and vegetables—even strawberries and melons!—plus herbs and helpful companion flowers.
