🌙 Gardening with the Moon Around the World: Ancestral Farming Knowledge

What if your garden could reconnect you with thousands of years of agricultural wisdom? This book is more than a guide, it is a journey across time and continents, exploring how different cultures have looked to the Moon to cultivate life.

From the fertile Nile fields of ancient Egypt to the Maori gardens of New Zealand and the biodynamic traditions of Vermont, this book reveals how farmers and gardeners have observed lunar cycles to guide sowing, planting, and harvesting.

Through two voices, Te Maia, a Maori gardener who follows the Maramataka lunar calendar, and Robert, a Vermont farmer inspired by almanacs and family heritage, you will discover two worlds united by one celestial companion: the Moon.

Inside this book you will find:

🌍 A cultural journey: Dive into the history of lunar agriculture, from ancient civilizations and medieval Europe to today’s ecological revival.
🌙 Practical lunar gardening techniques: Learn how waxing, waning, rising, and falling moons influence growth, and how to adapt your planting accordingly.
🌿 Unique case studies: Explore Maori traditions, the sacred role of water and tides, and the pragmatic methods of North American gardeners.
✏️ Your own lunar garden notebook: A complete year planner to track your sowing, watering, and harvests in harmony with lunar phases.

Whether you are a gardener seeking more abundant harvests, a nature lover drawn to ancestral knowledge, or simply curious about the cultural meaning of the Moon, this book will guide you step by step into a way of cultivating that honors both science and tradition.

Reconnect with the rhythms of the sky and rediscover the wisdom of those who came before us.
