Product Description
Contact it “Zen and the Art of Farming” or a “Little Green Book,” Masanobu Fukuoka’s manifesto about farming, consuming, and the limits of human understanding presents a radical challenge to the international systems we rely on for our meals. At the very same time, it is a spiritual memoir of a man whose innovative method of cultivating the earth reflects a deep faith in the wholeness and balance of the all-natural planet. As Wendell Berry writes in his preface, the book “is worthwhile to us because it is at as soon as practical and philosophical. It is an inspiring, needed book about agriculture because it is not just about agriculture.” Trained as a scientist, Fukuoka rejected each modern agribusiness and centuries of agricultural practice, deciding as an alternative that the very best types of cultivation mirror nature’s own laws. More than the next 3 decades he perfected his so-called “do-nothing” method: commonsense, sustainable practices that all but eradicate the use of pesticides, fertilizer, tillage, and maybe most substantially, wasteful effort.Regardless of whether you’re a guerrilla gardener or a kitchen gardener, dedicated to slow meals or basically searching to reside a healthier life, you will locate something here—you could even be moved to begin a revolution of your personal.
