Sobre IBD

Putting the brakes on runaway consumerism through ‘freegardening’... rethinking our addiction to high-dependency container gardening... exploring our growing prospects in a topsy-turvy climate... why pulling down garden fences can reboot biodiversity... how local and diverse ‘earth centres’ could help gardening communities flourish... In this thought-provoking, cage-rattling collection of essays exploring gardening’s place in nature, John Walker burrows deep into gardening’s subsoil to uproot thorny issues, while encouraging gardeners to see their role as a force for good.This second book of John’s earth-friendly garden writing was originally published in Organic Gardening magazine as his long-running and popular series ‘Digging Deep’.John Walker has been growing plants since he could walk, gained the Kew Diploma in Horticulture, and is an award-winning gardening and environment author, writer and blogger. Despite occasional squirrel-fuelled frustration, he is enjoying eking a new earth- and climate-friendly garden from a once bracken-riddled hillside at his home in Snowdonia, North Wales.
