Description

Hugelkultur is a centuries-old gardening method that imitates nature’s processes and doesn’t require much irrigation or any fertilizer. Once the mound is produced, it is a low-maintenance method that produces rich, fertile soil that retains moisture. With countless benefits, this book will help you further understand the practice of hugelkultur, its history, and the basics of permaculture, as well as the processes that imitate nature. With a step-by-step process for creating and maintaining mounds, this book is a leading resource for gardeners, permaculturists, and homesteaders who are curious to learn more about this high-yield gardening practice.
