permaculture

[Rain Tenaqiya <raincascadia@yahoo.com>]

Hello everyone,
 
The book that I have been working on for the last 5 years is now ready!  
Here's my blurb:
 
Food Forests are multi-layered food gardens composed primarily of trees, 
shrubs, and other perennials that are designed to imitate wild forests while 
producing an abundance of food.  West Coast Food Forestry:  A Permaculture 
Guide addresses the design and maintenance of food forests west of the 
Cascades and Sierras, with special emphasis on the food plants that can be 
grown here.  This 136 page book includes:
 
- a discussion of bioregional issues relevant to food forestry on the North 
American West Coast;
 
- an illustrated tour of existing food forests on the West Coast:
 
- fully illustrated plant profiles for 239 food plants showing the whole 
plant, leaf, flower, and fruit for most species, with information on size, 
environmental preferences, maintenance, flowering and fruiting times, 
propagation, and more;
 
- charts showing when fruits and nuts are available for harvest;
 
- lists of plants for 36 characteristics relevant to design;
 
- plus a brief introduction to permaculture; and more.
 
If you are a West Coast gardener ready to turn your lawn into a food forest, 
then this is the book for you!
