The city can be colorful and lively, but also noisy, repressive and isolating (even more so since 2020…). Garden Communities asks readers how work and life can be a diverse, lively experience. This book describes how living in, with and from our gardens and forests provides the essential link to vital nature and to those things beyond what is considered scientifically tangible. Garden communities are essentially groupings of small farms (or large gardens) organized near -- or within -- urban centers. These communities provide nearby cities with fresh produce and vital nutrition while serving as a place to create a "good life" or, in the words of Wendell Berry, "a place for people loved and known...to come home to or to stay home in, because it would offer them satisfying, healthful, and sustaining work that they would be pleased to do all their lives." Garden Communities provides readers with examples of successful projects around the world and tools that can be used to bring a nature-centric lifestyle into one's own community or to start one's own Garden Community.
