Outstanding Guide to Gardening

I own and have read many books on gardening. John Jeavons has put together THE TEXTBOOK for beginners and advanced gardeners alike. I like the simple illustrations of such basic activities as double digging the garden, composting, and possible layouts of the garden. At the same time, I find the tables of detailed info on each plant an excellent resource for planning my own garden. I guess that some gardeners will feel intimidated by all the info, I sure did at first, and one other reviewer seemed to as well. But I can't imagine passing up this book for that reason!

Farmers love this book

I have only flipped through this book, but I wanted to balance the past few reviews with what I've heard from organic farmers in Northern California, who have expressed positive words that this is a Great, practical beginner resource about sustainable farming. To me, that's pretty convincing feedback.

This book is Great!!

THis book I would suggest to anyone that wants to learn how to produce a productive vegetable garden. I used to plant in rows with mixed results, but once I started composting and using the rasied bed meathod along with planting in blocks instead of rows, well I have enough to can and make my own home-made condiments now. I HIGHLY reccomend this book!!

very technical

this book contains a lot of technical information such as
"the avarage number of pounds of a crop eaten by each american in a year," and "the ph soil balance of crops" it is not for casual practicionars, i would recomend it only to serious farmers, but to them, it would be eccelent.
