First published in 1986, this classic is back in print by popular demand. It is the authoritative text on edible landscaping, featuring a step-by-step guide to designing a productive environment using vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs for a combination of ornamental and culinary purposes.
It includes descriptions of plants for all temperate habitats, methods for improving soil, tree pruning styles, and gourmet recipes using low-maintenance plants. There are sections on attracting beneficial insects with companion plants and using planting to shelter your home from erosion, heat, wind, and cold.

This highly original and eminently readable work will be very useful to novice as well as experienced gardeners and professionals interested in edible landscaping. --Robert Woolley, Nurseryman
Designing And Maintaining Your Edible Landscape Naturally by Robert Kourik is my all time favorite gardening book. Even if you don't have an edible landscape it contains a wealth of information, for landscapes, orchards, and vegetable gardens. Instead of focusing on one particular gardening style, he covers many different schools of thought and practices. Check this one out, I am sure you will enjoy it. --Harvest McCampbell
It s an excellent manual for designing and maintaining a garden that incorporates both ornamental and edible trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants. At 400 pages, this book covers every issue that may arise in your garden! Kourik offers only organic methods - a must when you re planting edible plants shoulder-to-shoulder with, for instance, roses - and he dispels many myths, too. The book includes a foreword by Rosalind Creasy, well known for her own edible/ornamental garden. --Meghan Shinn on www.hortmag.com
Robert Kourik is a landscape architect who has taken on design projects of all sizes, shapes and textures, water gardens, paths and patios, elegant arbors, habitat gardens, innovative home playgrounds, outdoor barbecue areas, deer-resistant gardens, to name just a few. Robert believes that it is thanks to, not despite, his lack of formal training that he is able to interpret this new interdisciplinary and original approach to gardening and landscaping. His work focuses primarily on organic, natural, sustainable, integrated systems, using permaculture and appropriate horticulture methods.
