If you want a garden that is fruitful as well as beautiful, and chemical free, you need Robert Kourik’s new book “Sustainable Food Gardens: Myths and Solutions.”  In our conversation, Robert details the exhaustive research in the garden and in the library that went into the writing of this invaluable guide.  We focus in particular on “food forests,” a central concept of the widely popular Permaculture school of gardening.  Robert describes how he has corrected this for the North American landscape, and where the Permaculture model goes wrong.  Just one of the many myths and solutions this must-have book addresses.
