5 Tips to Cultivate a Regenerative Backyard Garden

How to nurture a thriving productive garden, even if you don’t have a lot of space, time, or money.
If you’re investing time, money, and sweat into your garden but wish you could get more harvest and lush productivity from it, then this book is for you. I was in the same situation, managing two school gardens, putting in a lot of sweat equity but seeing mediocre results and barely keeping up with all the tasks because everything seemed to need MORE - more water, more fertilizer, more, more, more. I was working for the garden and hadn’t figured out how to build and utilize natural systems within it, just like the systems in a forest, to work for me. Then I was taught regenerative gardening principles, and the light came on. I'd like to share those concepts with you because they have entirely elevated my gardening experience.
In this book, 5 Tips to Cultivate a Regenerative Backyard Garden, you’ll discover how to apply regenerative farmers' practices in your home garden. You’ll learn to nurture your garden to be resilient and self-sufficient, save money and get the satisfaction of growing nutritious, flavorful food for your family.
