This is a very informative without being overwhelming. It has some easy and accessible steps people can take to improve the conservation in their yards. It includes activities families could do with their children. Really only for home owners not much for container gardeners and renters.

Yes, please buy this book. I’ll give an automatic 4.5 stars to any book that encourages lessening your lawn, planting more native plants, getting rid of invasive plants and creating safe spaces for wildlife. I’m excited to hold the actual book in my hands and place it in my home library.
Full of important, yet often simple ways to encourage a more sustainable yard. There are also little projects in here ranging from easy peasy (bird feeders) to weekend projects (building a pond).
Great book for a new homeowner or anyone looking to make the planet a more livable place.

This is a beautiful, helpful book on creating a natural yard. Covers everything you can think of, from tick control to seed saving to leaves to dealing with neighbors. It’s full of gorgeous photos, tons of info and inspiration.

I read a temporary digital loan of this book for review.

This book is great and i wish I had been able to read it years ago when I was just starting out my gardening adventures. Wolfe shares a lot of high quality info about gardening and landscaping sustainably and I wish more people would read this and practice green.
