Successful vegetable gardening is ruled by a natural system, and if the gardener works in harmony with nature, his/her garden will succeed. This book represents the author's contribution to the inevitable redirection of farming and gardening away from harmful industrial scale chemical-dependent practices to a more healthful, localized, and ecologically sensible way to produce our food. It is a collection of articles selected to give explanations, instructions, and descriptions to help people toward an intelligent and more natural approach to growing their own food. It details how to grow fabulous vegetables by paying attention to these six requirements: consideration for seed selection, multi-cropping, crop rotation, soil amendments, composting, and the use of cover crops. These six things, along with routine maintenance, will result in a garden that inevitably produces unpoisoned, delicious, and nutritious vegetables economically and in abundance
