41 Books on Regenerative Agriculture That Will Fill You With Hope! (Part 2)

Reading books about the old ways being rediscovered can be helpful.

Continuing on our journey into the world of Regenerative Agriculture here are five more great books!

6.) Teaming with Nutrients: The Organic Gardener’s Guide to Optimizing Plant Nutrition by Jeff Lowenfels

Fungi and microbes facilitate the interaction between plants and nutrients in the soil. This book is all about the flow of soil chemistry and how it all works. Jeff does a great job at explaining all of this without you needing any kind of background in chemistry.

7.) Mycelium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World by Paul Stamets

Food, medicine, communications, soil structure and function, nutrient cycling, and bio-remediation. This book covers a lot of topics and is very accessible. This book is a must-have even if you aren’t directly interested in fungi. What they facilitate in the soil, however, is critical and without them, life would look very different on planet Earth.

8.) Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms by Paul Stamets

One of Paul's earlier works, this book is a staple of the amateur mycology movement. More mushroom growers learned how to grow mushrooms for themselves and for sale from this book than any other.

9.) Gaia's Garden: A Guide to Home-Scale Permaculture, 2nd Edition by Toby Hemenway

One of the best ways to learn the monster design science that is #Permaculture is to practice the techniques on a small scale: your backyard. You will learn all of the basics of Permaculture and you’ll get highly productive, permanent assets as well.

10.) The Permaculture City: Regenerative Design for Urban, Suburban, and Town Resilience by Toby Hemenway

Toby Hemenway scales up all of the techniques and technologies found in Gaia's Garden to neighborhoods, small towns, and urban centers. Change is coming.
