The Forager's Garden

This is a complete guide to growing an edible sanctuary where wildflowers and local species thrive, alongside lots of food that you can go out and gather. These gardens are long-term, low maintenance and vibrant spaces that help restore the Nature around us.

I love your book, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the world. You make the ideas of forest gardening and permaculture really accessible for people. I bought a paper copy (as well as digital) and it’s going round the workshop participants. You’re a big inspiration for me

Hi,

Just a note to say I’ve bought a Spiked Rampion for our Garden, thanks to your book.

It’s a brilliant read.

 Your book has helped me massively!

Kate Ford

This is such a useful book for anyone who is interested in creating a low maintenance edible garden, even in a small space. It breaks the principles down really simply, everything is easy to follow and feels achievable, even for a novice gardener and those on low budgets, whether it's your own garden or a community space. I also really liked how the practical advice is linked to the bigger picture around food security and community building. It has definitely inspired me and given me the confidence to try this approach in my own small garden!
