Friday Freebies: Food Not Lawns

Posted by Siel in freebies (June 29, 2007 at 12:52 pm)

Today’s giveaway’s a copy of Food Not Lawns: How to Turn Your Yard Into a Garden and Your Neighborhood Into a Community, written by Heather Flores. This book isn’t just about growing food. In fact, the book’s vision is a much broader, far-ranging one about building communities and neighborhoods — and movements to benefit these new groups.

Read my review here. If you’d like the book, comment or email by Sunday to get in the drawing, which’ll happen Monday. US addresses only

    I’d love to read this book, my landlord has been pretty good about planting gardens so far :)

    I liked your review of the book. I’ve been looking to get more green and I’ll be moving to CA soon, so it’ll probably be easier. Don’t enter me to win the book though, I live in an apt. so it probably won’t do me much good!

    I would love to be entered for this book. My wife and I are planning on growing all or most of our own food once we buy a place. We spent time at B&Bs outside of Portland where the house owners grew all their own food and were very inspired. This sounds like a good starting place.
