Zelenina z ekozahrady pro radost i soběstačnost – Svoboda Jaroslav (2018)

The book deals with fun permaculture vegetable gardening, from choosing a location for the beds to shaping them in many different ways, to enriching the soil, creating compost, and adding natural soil amendments. It illuminates the planning of individual vegetable types, their combinations in terms of practicality and beauty, and crop rotation both within a single year and over the years. The book explains the concept of a garden bed area, as well as how to create a vegetable paradise in a part of the garden or family estate with many additional elements (summer kitchen, gazebo, greenhouse, water beds, cold frames, shed, compost area, herb section, perennial section, cellar, fencing, and walls). The authors also discuss how to raise ducks or chickens and integrate them appropriately into the gardening system. Each type of vegetable is described in detail in the book – you will find guidance on their cultivation, options for choosing varieties and forms. The authors present tried-and-true recipes for processing the harvest in a raw way, smoothies, and delicious vegan meals – those that can be easily prepared in the summer kitchen or in the gazebo right by the beds. The book is so enticing that even people who have never thought about it before will start growing vegetables.
