Description

A beautifully illustrated survey of the worlds most inspiring kitchen gardens, from potagers and historic estates to rooftop urban farms

Celebrates the diversity of what an edible garden can be. Gardenista

This stunning volume celebrates the rich history of kitchen gardens through more than 50 of the worlds finest examples, each explored in depth through gorgeous imagery, vivid storytelling, and insightful texts highlighting garden and growing details.

Organized geographically, the book reveals how climate, culture, and history inform productive gardens around the world. Readers will discover European walled gardens flush with flowers and edibles; a forward-thinking, rooftop urban farm in Singapore; and an abundant coastal garden in Patagonia that proves green things can grow in the harshest of places. Iconic locations, such as Chāteau de Villandry and Bunny Mellons Oak Spring Garden, appear alongside community spaces, such as Alice Waters Edible Schoolyard in California, as well as stunning contemporary gardens by Patrice Taravella (Babylonstoren, South Africa), Arne Maynard (Gordon Castle, Scotland), Charles Stick (Sleepy Cat Farm, USA), and other renowned designers.
