Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I picked up this book at my local Library. Spring is here and I am always on the look out for a gardening book that is going to motivate me. I did my usual flip the book to the back, and began perusing backwards and came upon the chapter entitled "Hardware In the Food Garden". The first sentence reads "Those lovely pictures of vegetable gardens featuring colorful rows in beds and heaped black soil may be reality somewhere, but not in my climate and not always in gardens run on clean and green principles." Suddenly I wanted to know more. How often have I looked in books and magazines and felt intimidated by the ornate beauty and presentation of the designs. I have never been a confident gardener, but I have always wanted to take control of my own food supply . This book speaks to me on so many levels. It helps me design plots based on what my needs will be (salad plots, stir-fry plots, the herb plot, curry plot etc.). It tells me what I can plant, it lays it all out for me. It tells me how to prepare and maintain my garden without having to spend a fortune. It reads like a book that has been passed down from your favorite Grandmother who is sharing all her secrets with you. I will definitely be purchasing this book. It gets a huge organic green thumbs up from me.
