The Edible Backyard - Kath Irvine
The Edible Backyard - Kath Irvine
The book that turns good intentions into an actual vege garden.
The Edible Backyard is Kath Irvine's year-round guide to growing your own, for anyone done pretending store-bought tomatoes taste like anything. Kath has spent 20 years teaching Kiwi gardeners, and this book is the next best thing to having her lean over your fence and tell you exactly what to do next.
It follows a full year in her own garden, season by season, from the first bed dug to the harvest that actually shows up. Design and layout, soil fertility, seasonal planting, and organic pest and disease control are all covered in plain English, backed up by hundreds of photos and illustrations so you can see what she means.
Whether you're starting from a patch of lawn or trying to get more out of the beds you've already got, this is the reference you'll keep going back to.

“I wish I had discovered this years ago. Made the perfect gift for the man who ‘has it all’. Beautifully crafted, I was pleasantly surprised how heavy and sharp it was. Would buy again.”

“I love the easy access both sides, the height was sufficient to grown runner beans on a tall mesh frame and it’s very easy to put together but may need two people to lift the net over the framework. Just love it.”

“I have one and it is a game changer. Enough pockets to totally fit all the tools I wanted to carry. It's great to have them all in one handy place when I'm working in the garden instead of floating around in the bottom of the wheelbarrow.”

“Where has this tool been all my life? It is awesome, works brilliantly, even with older dried out flax. Literally like a hot knife through butter."
