As a result many are returning to the earlier traditional methods of gardening which do not require the use of potentially damaging substances. Peter Bennett has been sucessfully gardening using these methods for over 40 year with outstanding results and Organic Gardening, which was first published in 1979, has become an accepted major work on the subject. This fully revised edition has been updated, totally re-designed and includes over 70 new colour photographs. (Australian setting but suitable for NZ)
