Shawna Coronado, one of America's most creative gardeners, gives you
her library of clever gardening tricks in 101 Organic Gardening
Hacks.
If you ask garden author Shawna Coronado what a hack is, she might just
wave her hand toward her own back yard. She could be pointing at the
garden bench she created from leftover wood posts and a few cinder
blocks, or the rows of wine bottles buried soldier-style along a winding
pathway, or even the garden soil itself, which is blended by hand from
an organic soil recipe she devised.
In 101 Organic Garden Hacks you'll find the top tips, tricks, and
solutions Shawna has dreamed up in her career as one of America's most
creative gardeners. Some are practical timesavers; others offer
clever ways to upcycle everyday items in your garden.
One characteristic every hack shares is that they are completely
organic and unfailingly environmentally friendly. Divided into a
dozen different categories for easy reference, each hack is
accompanied by a clear photo that shows you exactly how to complete
it. With these hacks, discover how easy it is to:
-
Fertilize your soil the all-natural way with tips on using manure,
mulch, epsom salt, coffee grounds, and different types of compost made
from kitchen and garden waste.
-
Maintain your garden with eco-friendly tricks for repelling pests and
conserving water, including making earwig traps and harvesting rain
water.
-
Attract pollinators with plant selections and DIY feeders and homes.
-
Transform your outdoor space into an elegant retreat with garden decor
from recycled items like an old chandelier.
-
And much more!
