What could be more placid amid noise and haste than a cat staring quietly out into a dramatic skyscape, her soft fur reflecting the light? Or more peaceful than sleeping kittens cuddled up together in a pile? Does anything illustrate the idea of "being on good terms with all persons" more than a sweet, small feline sitting atop a large, calm dog?

The meaning of "organic" is changing fast, becoming more and more an umbrella term for all things environmental: from ethical consumerism, waste recycling, and self-sufficiency to new trends in wildlife-friendly, sustainable, and forest gardening. This guide aims to redefine what it means to be an organic gardener by showing how these popular new areas of green living are relevant to ordinary gardeners and by demonstrating simple, achievable ways that these ideas can transform any garden. Topics that are covered include gardening for wildlife, decoration, and food; making ethical choices at the garden center; creating an ecological shed; exploring alternatives for outdoor living; and gardening beyond the garden — conservation volunteering and community gardening.
