Why read it?
1 author picked A Way to Garden as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This clever and thoughtful approach celebrates the fact that we are all woven into the fabric of the natural world. Add to that the author’s lifetime of good gardening experience and advice, and this book shows readers in intimate detail how to work with nature, not against her.
From Mary-Kate's list on garden books to save the planet.
