Eco-friendly edible garden: Designing and cultivating while respecting the earth (The)

This book offers guidance on planning, creating, and maintaining an edible garden in an eco-responsible way. From characterizing and analyzing built and living elements, through planning and shaping the vegetable garden and planting the fruit orchard, to maintaining, harvesting, and consuming vegetables, fruits, and other produce, gardeners can create a sustainable and economical edible garden.

One of the unique aspects of this book is that it offers an original overview of different types of organic gardening, both traditional and modern forms of vegetable gardens, fruit gardens, and indoor growing methods. Each gardener can therefore choose the layouts best suited to their needs and expectations, while developing an eco-responsible approach.

To remain true to the book's theme, the author chose an eco-responsible approach. The paper format, which is 100% recycled, avoids unnecessary paper use. During the eco-design process, he selected low-ink fonts and limited the size of the photographs. These are in black and white to further reduce ink consumption. Eco-inking involved creating craters ranging from black to gray to minimize ink usage. Finally, he opted for short, easily renewable print runs to avoid inventory and the need to recycle unsold books.
