Happy pub day! Today, Gardenista: The Low-Impact Garden finally hits bookstores. We can’t wait for you to crack it open and enjoy the contents.
A companion volume to Remodelista: The Low-Impact Home, it’s the result of longtime Gardenista writer Kendra Wilson and acclaimed photographer Caitlin Atkinson’s travels around three continents to find—and photograph—the best in gorgeous eco-minded landscapes. As a guide for future gardening, it is a show-and-tell of sustainable design and innovative ideas, articulated by the most original thinkers in the garden world today. Whether you’re a new homeowner looking for landscape guidance or a seasoned gardener in search of fresh ideas, you’ll find a wealth of inspiration inside.

Here’s just a glimpse of what you can find in its pages:
- Visits to 12 exquisite gardens, both urban and rural, and details on what goes into making a brilliant front yard, summer cottage garden, stylish indoor-outdoor space, eco-conscious pool, lush green roof, and more
- Fundamentals, demystified: deep dives on native plants, trees, shrubs, soil, and more
- Expert tips and ideas
- The Gardenista 50, a compilation of our favorite attractive, made-to-last garden tools.
P.S.: To celebrate the release, Kendra offers a sneak peek at all the cool lawn-free front yard ideas she encountered while working on the book; read the full thing over on Gardenista.
