"With all these folks in my area tearing up their front lawns in favor of raised beds that will produce food, I was delighted when my mom unearthed this classic.
Very pragmatic approach organized by month. Not completely organic, if that matters to you, but easy enough to modify it to be so.
Worth having as a reference if you have any interest in vegetable gardening or this new "victory garden" revival."
"Great book, perfect for the beginner gardener. Even though this book was published back in the 70's, it is still full of useful information. I love that it is broken up into month. It tells you want to plant, transplant, start from seed and harvest. Good notes on how to prepare the soil, make cold frames, and what tools every gardener needs."
"I pick up this book every winter and pore over the pictures and instructions. Yes he uses lots of diazinon, yes money was no object for the show so hotbed, etc. are included but I say dream big -- when its -25 Fahrenheit before you tack on the old windchill there is just something comforting about dreaming of all the things you can plant for beauty and food in your garden. My parents passed it on to me in 06, but this regularly gets consulted when I'm planning my vegetable garden every year. One could almost call it my gardening oracle."
