Imagine a world with no driveaways. Instead, each home would be flanked on each side by rainwater friendly gardens, vegetable patches, edible-flowers and the only thing that is missing is hard, cold wasteful pavement. Well that's the vision that Franke James had when she went about transforming her personal driveway into a garden. But she found out that the city wasn't so thrilled with the whole idea.
In this visually beautiful story of a book, Bothered By My Green Conscience, Franke walks us through her journey to bringing her vision to fruition. As I read this book, I laughed, was bothered, got motivated and was entertained by one womans journey to green.
