Book description
Vegetable gardening reinvented--and elevated--with the high-style approach of award-winning landscape designer Christian Douglas. What if, instead of relegating our vegetable patch to a remote corner of the backyard, we brought it forward? What if we integrated edibles into our decorative landscapes, letting vegetables, herbs, fruits, and berries share prime real estate alongside our patios, pools, even our front walkways? Equal parts inspiration and instruction, and filled with an abundance of ideas and information, The Food Forward Garden is a lushly illustrated guide to how we can make better use of our outdoor spaces without sacrificing style. In this comprehensive tome, award-winning landscape designer Christian Douglas shows us how the intrinsic beauty and seasonal rhythms of edibles bring a new level of purpose, meaning, and stunning visual pleasure to the home garden.
