The New Victory Garden  If you grow mushrooms for your kitchen, why not raise your own organic vegetables the easy way?  Square Foot Gardening makes it fun for your whole family – and the kids love it!  With SFG you grow your veggies in one-fifth the area of a row garden, use one-fifth the labor, and one-fifth the water. Combine SFG with Lasagna Gardening, and you’ll never have to fuss with a compost pile again!

Our Straw-Insulated Solar Greenhouse plans let you create a bit of paradise. Greenhouses make their own climate, protected from storms, sun, drought, and cold. Work and relax surrounded by lush vegetables, fruits, flowers, and mushrooms year ‘round.  Ideal for Square Foot Lasagna raised beds, and for growing mushrooms year ’round. A perfect way to cope with climate change and economic instability – and begin the learning curve to become a real gardener. Best of all, no longer will deer, rabbits, racoons, squirrels and birds beat you to your beans, potatoes, lettuce, tomatoes and melons.

You can help reverse Global Warming! Planting trees and making biochar from wood scraps and branches will sequester atmospheric CO2 in solid form. Biochar is pure charcoal aged in a compost pile, resulting in the richest soil on earth, “Terra Preta”.  Biochar grows new soil, permanently improves the fertility of the garden, and keeps the carbon in the ground for hundreds of years. Find out how in our classic The Biochar Solution by Albert Bates. Coming soon: How to make your own biochar stove, the Lulu Retort. It’s nearly smokeless, so even your grouchiest neighbors won’t give you a hard time.
