Naturescape Your Yard: A Step-by-Step Guide for Homeowners will teach you how to design and create your own landscape that works with nature so that it becomes more beautiful with time--rather than more work!
Beautifully natural . . .
Gone are the days of "hippie" natural gardening. Formally trained landscape designer Beth Young will teach you how to make your yard the prettiest on the block!
. . . and naturally beautiful
A garden where the soil is fed by natural processes and rewards you with healthy, disease-free plants. A garden that attracts the beneficial bugs and offers up the "bad" bugs to be eaten by birds and other critters. A garden that is teaming with birdsong, life and beauty. A garden in harmony with nature.
Become water wise
Learn how your garden can work with your seasonal rainfall patterns to save potable water and improve the health of your local watershed--not to mention lowering your water bill.
As local as it gets
Learn how to grow fruits, vegetables and herbs that are healthier than you could ever purchase at the grocery store and make everything you cook taste all that much better.
Feel good
You are doing right by your garden and working to heal your local ecosystems in so many ways!
Really step-by-step
Beth Young has been designing residential landscapes for over ten years and teaching homeowners how to create their naturescapes since 2005 (this book is based on that class); from these "real world" experiences Beth has perfected a design-and-installation template that any homeowner can follow with ease.
Our motto: be cheap and lazy!
Naturescaping will teach you how to work with nature so that your land has no need for expensive synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Your healthy, water-wise plants will not need coddling and you won't have all those tedious yards chores anymore. What will you do with your time? Enjoy your yard! |
