The New Natural Food Garden

“As an avid regenerative gardener, herbalist, and mother, I deeply appreciate books that encourage us to work with nature rather than constantly trying to control it. The New Natural Food Garden beautifully reflects that philosophy. Natalie Bogwalker and Chloe Lieberman share practical wisdom for growing abundant food in a way that honors the rhythms of the land while actually making gardening simpler and fun. What I love most is that the book encourages observation and relationship with the garden instead of rigid rules. It reminds us that paying attention to the rhythms of the land are the true foundations of a thriving garden. A wonderful guide for anyone who wants to grow nourishing food for their family while caring for the earth at the same time.”

“I love a good picture-forward comprehensive guidebook. The New Natural Food Garden is a gardening manual made easy for both novice gardeners and those with well caked dirt under their nails. The layout allows for quick referencing of techniques and information like building “badass topsoil” or making and using biochar (again, with ample diagrams and pictures!) I’ve learned so much simply from flipping to an area I want support and reading the sections next to it. This book is insanely resourceful.”

“I’ve already started using your book this spring in my garden planning and it’s been incredibly helpful. I love how clearly laid out it is - the vegetable profiles have really helped me to plan what to plant when and given me great tips. The pictures in the book are gorgeous and I often get sucked in, just flipping through the book to be inspired by the gorgeous gardens and vegetables pictured. This book is exactly the garden guide book I’ve been looking for - simple, elegant, and all of the information I need to grow a successful garden.”

“I’ve spent years searching for the ultimate vegetable gardening guide–one brimming with charts, rich growing profiles, and the kind of hard-won wisdom only a seasoned gardener can offer. The New Natural Food Garden by Natalie Bogwalker and Chloe Lieberman is it. It’s already become my go-to reference. The lush imagery is a delight, and the thoughtfully crafted charts will save me untold hours of digging through research.”

“A major contribution to the world of local self-reliance and food production, and a book I’ll turn to year after year. It deserves a place on every gardener’s shelf.”
