Description
Bring the joy of foraging into your garden with this beautiful guide to growing low-maintenance, edible perennials.
Many gardeners already cultivate crops they can harvest and enjoy, but when winter arrives, the bare beds left behind can be dispiriting. Edible perennials offer a resilient, sustainable alternative: plants we can eat, which look great growing in our gardens, return year after year, require minimal effort and thrive in a range of conditions. From asparagus to blackcurrants, pine nuts to oyster mushrooms, these hardy species are naturally resistant to drought and pests, and provide a rich, varied harvest across the seasons.
In Grower-Gatherer, award-winning garden writer and designer Jack Wallington shares a curated list of his fifty favourite perennial vegetables, fruit, herbs, nuts, fungi and edible flowers. Organised for practical use and inspiration, this comprehensive guide to sustainable growing features:
- A detailed A to Z of edible perennials with growing advice and nutritional insights
- Interviews with successful growers from around the world
- Beautiful photography throughout to spark ideas and showcase possibilities
Whether you're planting a small urban plot or dreaming of a full-scale food forest, Grower-Gatherer is your essential companion to cultivating an environmentally-friendly garden that feeds body and mind year after year.
