Green Urban Living by Janet Luke

Janet Luke is a qualified landscape architect with a Masters degree in Environmental and Resource Planning from Massey University. She has a passion for sustainable design and through this book shows how easy it is to have a productive urban garden and work with nature. This book is not about hard and fast rules but about principles that anyone can follow.

Through Green Urban Living, Janet evokes some of the methods used in traditional kiwi backyards and incorporates modern concepts like recycling, organics and using water sustainably. She even shows readers how they can keep chickens and bees in an urban environment.

Green Urban Living contains practical step-by-step advice on how to create a productive garden, detailed sections on worm farming, keeping chickens and beekeeping in the urban environment, inventive and exciting garden projects for children, and top tips from the green community. Readers will find lots of creative and innovative ideas using low-cost materials.

If you are serious about more sustainable living, this book shows you what can be done, even with limited space and budget.
