Reviews" The Regenerative Garden provides an inspiring blueprint (or greenprint!) for helping gardeners map out realistic steps to take in their own garden. The 'good, better, and even better' scale provides actionable ways to make a difference immediately--and long-term objectives to strive for over time. I can't wait to introduce some of these projects into my garden as I work on my own regenerative space."-- Tara Nolan, best-selling author of Raised Bed Revolution and Gardening Your Front Yard, and co-owner, "Within each chapter are many projects that you can readily accomplish at reasonable cost and time. In fact, you might scratch your head and think....why haven't I done that. Do not scold yourself because with this book in hand, you can do it! Follow these permaculture suggestions and you will become a better informed and more eco-conscious gardener." -- George Graine, The Graine Thumb, "Stephanie takes a thoughtful and practical approach to presenting the concepts and principles behind regenerative gardening in a down to earth and easy to understand manner. This makes the DIY projects and methods accessible to all gardeners. She encourages you to progress, improve, and learn but not worry about being perfect in your garden. A mindset I share deeply. She takes you from soil, to sharing your gardening with your surrounding community, and all the steps in between. I'll be adding some of her DIY projects to my gardens. The beauty of this book is that you'll create a garden that, with time, becomes better at taking care of itself."-- Gary Pilarchik, author of The Modern Homestead Garden, founder of The Rusted Garden

SynopsisDiscover how to work with nature, instead of against it, by employing permaculture techniques to create a garden that is not just more beautiful and productive, but also more resilient. While the word permaculture might sound intimidating, the principals behind it are not. The main goal of permaculture is to turn your space into a functioning ecosystem that's less reliant on external resources and better able to sustain itself through many seasons of growth and change as it resists pests, diseases, and climate extremes.
