105 pages, indexed, illustrated. A pristine copy. "A must-have book for anyone who would like to garden but previously felt they were unable to because of money, time or space constraints. No dig gardening is an approach to gardening based on a set of simple principles that echo natural processes. A no dig garden generally consists of layers of organic material placed directly on the ground. This rots down into a rich layer of compost that is worked on by micro- and macro-organisms to create a medium that is nutrient-rich, water absorbing and essential for healthy plant growth. No dig gardens can be built to any shape or size and can be placed anywhere. No digging is required, so they can be built by anyone, young or old. Maintenance is minimal and the results are fantastic! The book contains essential information on how to create your new no dig garden, including materials, types of gardens, what and how to plant, and ongoing maintenance and troubleshooting."
