Good addition to your sustainable library

I’m a big fan of permaculture. I love how you can garden in a way that works with nature rather than against it and the whole process works so much better. You get better quality and higher yields and the work is easier and more enjoyable. This was a good guide for anyone who is new to permaculture or just wants to brush up on their knowledge. I’ve read and listened to a lot of permaculture books and this is a good addition to anyone’s sustainable library.

Everything you need to know about permaculture gardening

I had zero knowledge about permaculture gardening, but this book made it all so clear and easy. I like the concept of working with nature instead of against it ... the book covers so much of the details a novice green thumber wouldn't know like layout, environment, sun exposure, and plant spacing. I found the listen interesting, helpful and am now excited to take the tools I learned in this guide into my own garden.

Great Beginners Guide to Cultivating Your Garden

The Beginner’s Guide to Permaculture Gardening by Jeremy Olaque, is a great starters guide for cultivating your own sustainable garden in no time at all. I have listened to a few books on this topic as of late to continue growing our garden in our small back yard, and I must say I think I enjoyed this one the most. I was very interested in the chapter on pest control as this is a pain point in my home garden. Very well done and I highly recommend this audiobook to anyone looking to start out growing their own vegetables!!
