Abstract:
Tama Matsuoka Wong, master forager and gardener, wants you to rethink your relationship with gardening. Rather than trying to vanquish and control, what if you took a gentler approach, tending the land and encouraging plants, even the ones you didn't plant yourself? Part practical, part philosophical, Into the Weeds is for fledgling and experienced gardeners alike, with information for building simple structures like borders and beds with wild wood scraps, a pared-down plant ID section for some of the most common edible, useful, plants in the world, and recipes for teas, tinctures, and cocktails. Brimming with knowledge and inspiration, and gorgeously photographed and illustrated, Into the Weeds is your all-seasons companion to living in harmony with your outdoor space.--Back cover.
