With this delightful book you can garden with hardly any labour except planting & picking. The Stout System of mulch gardening will allow you to throw away your weeding tools, pesticides, and fertilisers, and will conserve and replenish the soil to make plants thrive like never before. source

Ruth Stout was 76 years old when she wrote this book yet she was at the time single handedly managing a garden which looked like this.

Enough she says to feed herself and a few other people all year round.

The Stout System makes growing our own food infinitely easier with no watering or weeding required.

All one does in essence is add mulch, plant and harvest. (With the addition of one natural fertiliser, indicated below)

Plants will also have a greater capacity for surviving both drought and freezing conditions, the mulch providing moisture in the summer and heat in the winter (from decomposing matter).

As someone who is always looking to reduce the amount of work time involved in feeding myself and my family with quality home-grown food, this book is exactly what the doctor ordered.
