Have you ever wanted to keep chooks, grow some of your own food, bake your own bread or harvest your own rainwater . . . but assumed that was only for people with large blocks of land?

Think again: city living and city growing are perfectly compatible, with City Permaculture to guide you along the path to urban sustainability.

Learn how to choose the right species to plant, the right time of year to plant food, how to prepare your courtyard, balcony or even nature strip so you can enjoy the buzz of growing your own food.

You don't need to go bush to enjoy the delights of collecting your own chook eggs. City Permaculture is packed with real life information from urbanites living the good life in the middle of town.

Instead of reading the theory of how to do it, why not read about the real and practical experiences of people who are at it right now? Once you get the city permaculture bug, the sky's the limit.

Topics include:

• Chooks in the City
• Edible Rooftops
• Wall Gardens for Food
• Balcony and Nature Strip Gardens
• Mushrooms and Stingless Bees
• Permaculture Design for Small Spaces

Full colour photos and diagrams throughout.
