Anything and just about everything you need to know about growing food and living more sustainably is in this fantastic book by Hawke's Bay author Janet Luke.
The step-by-step instructions on how to build a chicken tractor, make a worm farm,install a water barrel, build a sandwich garden and planting seeds are precise and easy to follow.
Janet has included chapters on gardening with kids, composting, growing flowers, using water sustainably and much much more.
She includes top tips like using old carpet to cover a compost pile.
She covers beekeeping, companion planting and of course top vegetables, fruit and herbs to grow. The beekeeping section is fascinating even if you have no intention getting a bee hive.
I love this book and anyone who loves to get out in the garden will get something out of this. A welcome addition to any gardener's library.
