Bonsai - das Wort klingt für unsere Ohren gleichzeitig fernöstlich-exotisch und doch vertraut. Fast jeder hat schon einmal ein solch eigentümlich geformtes Gewächs in Büro oder Wohnzimmer stehen gehabt, aber die Wenigsten wissen, dass hinter den Miniaturbäumen eine ganze philosophische Kultur steckt. Denn tatsächlich offenbart die Zucht der Bäumchen ein Universum aus hingebungsvoller Gärtnerkunst, uraltem Zen-Buddhismus, meditativer Versenkung und tiefer Naturverbundenheit.

Journalist and self-proclaimed “crappy gardener” Tamar Haspel is on a mission: to show us that raising or gathering our own food is not as hard as it’s often made out to be. When she and her husband move from Manhattan to two acres on Cape Cod, they decide to adopt a more active approach to their diet: raising chickens, growing tomatoes, even foraging for mushrooms and hunting their own meat. They have more ambition than practical know-how, but that’s not about to stop them from trying…even if sometimes their reach exceeds their (often muddy) grasp.

Composting, and how to, is the theme that runs through this book, which also looks at the state of the world and adds a few folk tales and essays that may provoke your mind.
