• harvest the suburbs, turning your garden into a self-sufficient source of vegetables, fruit and flowers
• design a garden ecosystem that includes bird-attracting native shrubs and trees
• start a garden using the no-dig and other amazingly easy methods
• utilise techniques such as composting, mulching, crop rotation, companion planting and self-recycling gardening to maximise pleasure and results and minimise time and effort
• grow great gardens without artificial fertilizers
• and much more ...

Jeffrey Hodges has comprehensively revised his bestselling book to meet the growing demand for fresh, safe food and flourishing gardens that replenish the earth's resources - and our own lives.
