Paperback. Zustand: Good. For philosophizing gardeners and anyone who likes to pick up a spade and get their hands dirty Gardeners discover a new world every year--whether they're cultivating heirloom vegetables, foraging for wild herbs, creating a small permaculture garden on a city balcony, or maintaining a plot for self-sufficiency.
