Announcing the upcoming publication of my latest book – Edible Landscaping!

Cover to the new book - Edible Landscaping

Cover of the new book

After 5 and a half years of research, which included travels to 49 states, visits to countless restaurant, home,  and botanical gardens,   photography, and writing — the photos have been submitted, the manuscript is finished and now we’re just cleaning up the last details.  The official publication date is November 1, 2010. I know it’s really going to happen because the book is already available for pre-order on Amazon!  Edible Landscaping is a total revision of my 1982 book, perhaps prematurely titled, The Complete Book of Edible Landscaping.  It includes 300 color photos and updated organic growing information.

My lecture schedule for next Spring is starting to take shape and it starts where it should…at EcoFarm, the annual organic farming conference where I spoke 25 years ago on the same subject of Edible Landscaping.  I’m excited to still be a part of this edible revolution.  Keep checking the website as I will be updating my speaking calendar in a few weeks.

Nell Wade - Saw you at EcoFarm, loved every minute of it and am now very jazzed to start Edible Landscaping on my new property on 3 acres in the Central Coast. Have already landscaped with edibles at my two previous homes and am a firm believer in it. Blueberries, not Indian Hawthorne; parsley, not annual borders; peppers sprinkled about. Thank you for bringing this message to mainstream America. You’re amazing and my garden hero!

Fan - Great! I bought your book (used) last year and was excited to see on Amazon that a new book was coming out in 2010. Can’t wait to see the new material.

David Lawrence - I loved your 1982 book! I hope your 2010 update is not quite so California-centric: along with the spread of the internet has come the spread in the growing of many edibles. For example, there are now about 100,000 olive trees in Oregon, where in 1982 there were none. Since my 1982 edition has been used so much it is in tatters with some pages now missing, I am sure your new edition will provide years more enjoyment!

Leigh from Larrapin Garden - I can’t wait to have this book! I’ve been working on making my landscape delicious (larrapin!) for four years now. What a joy and how incredibly rewarding. Bravo for finishing it. Bravo for helping start a new way of thinking about yards.

Renee Andre - I saw an article about your book in “Body and Soul” magazine and look forward to purchasing it in November. Will it have a spiral binding so it will be easy to lay open?
