In the world's most important garden, you will learn what you can do to increase your garden's eco-service.
Not just by growing and planting – sometimes it can be as simple as not cutting the grass as often, leaving that tree standing for a while longer or choosing gravel over concrete. In this way, you can also help mitigate the effects of our increasingly extreme weather. This is an unusual gardening book, perhaps even a manifesto for nature. Cultivation is not just a hobby, but can be a significant contribution to the climate. Your garden can become an important piece of the puzzle in the urban ecosystem. If you let it.
"The respect and curiosity for wild life is contagious and the everyday stories make the book personal. Glodeck writes in light and playful language and together with around 70 of Stenvall's beautiful and fascinating photos, a fantastic and inspiring whole is created. Overall rating: 5 of 5." BTJ, Mikaela Karlsson
" The world's most important garden also makes something of its own from the tips. Above all because of Mariette Glodeck's creative and easy language with a twinkle in her eye that makes reading entertaining. She philosophizes, follows lines of thought and tries to understand, for example, why we so often tend our gardens in a kind of fight against nature instead of working with it. There is a lot to think about and it feels liberating to read someone who has thought a few steps further about how we take care of our little green patches here on earth. The personal appeal becomes even more appealing with nature photographer Jonathan Stenvall's pictures , which maintains a very high standard. Some of them are fantastic and could have been cover images of other books in the same genre. (...) The world's most important garden provides an excellent foundation to stand on for those of you who want to let your plot become a room even for that which buzzes, crawls and flaps." Richer garden, Erik Hansson
