Grow an Abundance of Food and Medicine—Naturally and Sustainably
The Forager’s Garden is your guide to transforming ordinary lawns and meadows into thriving ecosystems that nourish both body and soul. With minimal maintenance, you’ll learn to cultivate a landscape rich in edible and medicinal plants—designed to work in harmony with nature.
This book goes beyond traditional foraging. It’s about creating a living, breathing garden where wild and cultivated plants coexist, supporting a community of humans, animals, and beneficial insects. As food prices rise and conventional gardening becomes more labor-intensive, The Forager’s Garden offers a refreshing alternative. Instead of battling weeds and pests, you’ll embrace nature’s rhythms. Where traditional gardens struggle by midsummer, the wild garden flourishes—requiring little upkeep and offering increasing yields year after year.
Inside you’ll find chapters on:
Planning
Earth Time
Creating Habitat
Natives in the Landscape
The Forest Landscape
Naturalized Aliens
The Harvest
The Wild Apothecary
The Forager’s Garden teaches you to mimic nature’s design—growing in patches, not rows. This polyculture approach fosters resilience, biodiversity, and abundance. Over time, your garden becomes a self-sustaining ecosystem, providing food, medicine, and habitat for all.
