From the enclosures in seventeenth-century England to the food forests in modern Amsterdam, this is a big history of little spaces, of nature in urban life, and of gardeners and their gardens through time In the heart of bustling European and American cities lies an overlooked yet vibrant corner of resilience, ingenuity and magic: our gardens. From pre-Industrial England to modern-day Washington, via the Paris Commune, Barrackia in pre-war Berlin, Soviet allotments in Estonia, the orchards tended by Black migrants in Washington and food forests in contemporary Amsterdam, ordinary people, working with each other and with nature, cultivated life in the unlikeliest of places. Over the past three hundred years, these tiny gardens, often born from necessity and shaped by precarity, immigration and environmental crisis, thrived by recycling nutrients, remedying contaminated soil and transforming how we think about our relationship to the earth. Tiny Gardens Everywhere is a hymn to the most fertile agriculture in recorded human history, showing that it occurred not on farms - the product of gigantic exertions of fossil fuels and technology - but with little effort in small garden beds. And the resourcefulness, intuition and inherited methods of their growers accomplished many of today's sustainability goals in producing local, diverse and organic food. Acclaimed historian Kate Brown unearths the long and battered story of gardeners and their gardens, asking what happens when these urban Edens are not seen as retreats from the city but become part of its social fabric, alive with histories of displacement, conflict and resistance. This is a book about land, but also about community, repair and the quiet revolutions that begin when someone plants a seed in unloved ground.

A History of Urban Resilience

Tiny Gardens Everywhere

A follow-up to Houses that can Save the World, looking at how green spaces can be the solution to some of our most pressing problems, from loneliness to climate change. Gardens and green spaces are at the vanguard of positive change. They are modern-day crucibles for ideas and innovation that are providing solutions to some of our most persistent problems, whether loneliness or illness, flooding or drought. Around the world, green-fingered thinkers and pioneering plants-people are harnessing the power of the wild to quietly find small-scale strategies to reverse these ills. It's no longer just about aesthetics, but about what the great outdoors can do - save water, transform mental health, bridge social divides, educate vulnerable children, reimagine polluting industries and provide much reason for optimism in a rapidly changing world. Celebrating both the garden and gardener as integral players in a healthier future this book presents a series of strategies that will help the reader reevaluate the potential that lies in green spaces near them by looking at how they have been applied in gardens around the world. Fifty projects demonstrate how gardens can repair, heal, empower, nourish and reimagine, whilst an easy-to-read coloured code links each project to others in the book that solve a similar problem, whether soil health, education or pollution. Profiles of ten Green Thinkers dotted throughout delve more deeply into the inspiring work that these pioneers are leading. A glossary of plants, materials and techniques at the back of book encourages readers to apply the lessons learnt in their own garden, be that a windowsill or an acre.

You're Overwatering It!

Growing plants and (if we are lucky enough) creating gardens is deeply rewarding, but has also been proven to be vital for our health. Gardening helps improve our mood, relax us, take us away from our everyday problems, and promote positive emotions. It reduces anxiety and stress, can delay the onset of dementia, promotes joy, as well as improves physical health and even self-esteem. This newly revised book explores the ways we can introduce plants into our lives and thus embrace some of the benefits the natural world provides for our well-being. Divided into 50 sections, each one highlights a plant-based activity, how this is good for your health and provides links to the underlying concept that supports health and well-being.
