The Eco-Friendly Edible Garden: Understanding Nature and Taking Advantage of Its Benefits

This book takes a comprehensive and holistic approach to edible gardening. It's a kind of toolbox that brings together both basic principles and practical instructions for the various possibilities available to gardeners.

In practice, it is first and foremost a tool for freedom, allowing each gardener to choose the layouts that best suit their vision and expectations. Just as in nature, every ecosystem is unique, every eco-responsible edible garden should be equally so. Influenced by bioclimatic conditions and the characteristics of the land, it should above all reflect the gardener and their family.
Thanks to this book, gardeners will be able to produce healthy and tasty vegetables, fruits, herbs, and other edible plants, while protecting the environment.

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.
