The publication contains chapters on (1) Status of homegardens in Nepal, (2) Understanding diversity of homegarden and (3) Enabling and empowering homegarden farmers. It brings together new research findings and perspectives to show how home gardens contribute to the development, nutrition, and well being of rural households. The extensive literature on home gardens has addressed the various aspects of food security, nutrition, income, gender, biodiversity and ecosystem services that characterise home garden systems. The authors have shown how home gardens can be supported and mobilized as a development intervention that contributes to empowering rural households by generating income and improved nutrition in ways that are embedded in local cultures and traditions
