The book is about land stewardship based in ecology. It provides the reader with a flexible template to nurture land in ecologically-sensitive ways that respect the native place, are committed to caring use, think deeply about human and environmental needs and goals, advise careful planning, use a variety of stewardship models and designs that promote sustainable, and long-term relationships with place. This is a very intimate and careful method of land nurturing that can be applied to a half acre yard and garden, or to entire farms and ranches, nature reserves, counties, regions and countries. Its goal is to nurture paradisiacal places of perpetual ecological and human harmony. This book goes beyond the current literature on stewardship, organic farming, garden and park management, permaculture, ecological forestry and biodiversity conservation by including them all in a practical and flexible template for the permanent regeneration, use and preservation of domestic and wild lands. It includes dozens of the authors photographs and designs. The reader may well find that this book becomes one of their favorites on gardening, forestry, farming, nature conservation and sustainable living.
