Product description

Review

“All who have room for a tree should grow nuts – serious nutrition with huge gastronomic potential. In yet another beautiful book, one of our most accomplished forest gardeners shows how.” ―Colin Tudge, biologist, science writer, broadcaster and founder of The Campaign for Real Farming

How to Grow Your Own Nuts is the best guide I've seen to home and small-farm nut growing for the temperate climates, featuring species selection, cultivating, harvest, and processing. It includes many lesser-known species alongside standards like walnut, chestnut, and hazel. This is an essential guide to production of these perennial staple crops.” ―Eric Toensmeier, permaculturist, author and Yale University lecturer

“Martin Crawford is a one-man wonder! In this grand and beautiful book on nut culture he has assembled decades of practical insight to help gardeners and orchardists grow 'bread from trees.' From planting to harvesting, selection to storage, and pruning to pest control, you'll find the answers here. Complete with a thorough and lovingly illustrated guide to 19 species of nuts for the temperate world, this book sets a new standard for a vital but little-known field. If we must transform our agriculture to build soil and store carbon, then nut trees belong in all our futures.” ―
Peter Bane, author of The Permaculture Handbook

“A beautifully presented, clear, comprehensive bible from the man who knows more than anyone about growing nuts. Full of inspiration and information. It's a great book.” ―
Mark Diacono, gardener, food writer and broadcaster

    J'ai acheté encore un livre de Martin Crawford et whaoo, tellement complet et travaillé. Ses livres sont des trésors.
    Des arbres qui donnes des oléagineux inconnu comme le Xanthoceras sorbifolium, une sorte de Macadamia rustique.
    Je suis ravi, je dois demander mon voisin si je peux acheter un peu de son terrain car mon hectare de terrain est rempli avec 120 arbres fruitiers et je n'ai plus d'espace ! Merci.

    Detailliert eingehend in zahlreiche Nussarten.
    Guter Überblick auch über viele Sorten.
    Z.B. sind natürlich nicht alle 1000 Walnussarten beschrieben, aber das Buch gibt einen guter Überblick; ist schön geschrieben und schön und übersichtlich bebildert.
