How do I start?

1. Read, Building your own Biblical Garden, by F. Nigel Hepper
Click above for a complete guide to designing and building your own Biblical Garden.

Mr. Hepper is a leading authority on Bible Gardens and the author of many books on the subject.
This excerpt from his best selling book, How to Build a Bible Garden, and is reprinted with his

2. Look up your plants on our Biblical Plant List
Select the plants that will grow in your area.
Very few people can afford the time or money start from scratch to build a new Biblical Garden.
If you check the plants on the right side of this list, you will probably find some of these presently
growing in your garden. Review the entire list for familiar plants, shrubs and trees that will thrive in
your area and consider adding these to your present garden.

Congratulations! You have started your own Biblical Garden!
