I need to read your book. Here in Alaska we have had the spruce bark nettle come through and devastate our spruce trees. My yard used to have beautiful spruce trees. They are all dead and harvested. I was just thinking I need to put in a garden and figure out how to plant to be good for the environment. I would like to plant some kind of evergreen around the perimeter of the property and a nice garden for the pantry. I have about 1.3 acres.
