Bring the joy of foraging into your own garden with this beautiful guide to growing low-maintenance edible perennials.

Many gardeners enjoy growing crops to harvest, but when winter arrives, the bare beds left behind can be dispiriting. Edible perennials offer a resilient, sustainable alternative: beautiful plants that return each year, need little care, and provide delicious food you can forage. From asparagus to blackcurrants, pine nuts to oyster mushrooms, these hardy species provide a rich, varied harvest.

In Grower Gatherer, award-winning garden writer and designer Jack Wallington shares a curated list of his fifty favourite perennial vegetables, fruit, herbs, nuts, fungi, and edible flowers. Organised for practical use and inspiration, this comprehensive guide to sustainable growing features:

- A detailed A to Z of edible perennials with growing advice and nutritional insights
- Interviews with successful growers from around the world
- Beautiful photography throughout to spark ideas and showcase possibilities

Whether you're planting a small urban plot or dreaming of a full-scale food forest, Grower Gatherer is your essential companion to cultivating an environmentally friendly garden that nourishes body and mind year after year.
