When the zombies start stumbling over the hill – and we all know they’re on their way -what’s the first weapon you should grab? A garden fork. Preferably forged from a single piece of steel. Not because, given a good enough shove, its tines would pierce a zombie’s skull as easily as an overripe melon, but because come the end of the world, gardening will be what saves your skin. This book, which is aimed at beginners and more seasoned gardeners alike, will tell you what you need; the basics of gardening language and technique; provide a planting plan; debunk gardening myths and show you how to preserve your food and grow your own medicine even if there are no zombies around. Aimed primarily at the 18-35 audience, who are left cold by traditional gardening books, it will tell them, in words and pictures reminiscent of a graphic novel, the truth about growing your own food: that it is war, but a war you can, armed with the right information, win.

Author Biography

Isabel Lloyd and Phil Clarke have spent the past 10 years preparing for the apocalypse. They've done this by teaching themselves to grow fruit and vegetables, and watching every episode of The Walking Dead – some of them twice.
