Great Intro to Organic Gardening

This book is a great starter book for anyone thinking about having their own little garden. It has great, easy to understand infromation and good charts to guide you.

Cheap and easy gardening!

This is a straight forward manual on how to maximize your garden's potential without pesticides or store bought fertilizers. Additionally, there are many factoids on the "old fashioned" methods of gardening that were learned by trial and error over the history of humans. It's a great source for "use what you have" gardening. For some things, like insect control, there can be more than one or two solutions depending on your area and what you're growing. A handy guide for the beginner or intermediate gardener. ~Kendra Wesner, MLIS / Michigan

Extremely Pleased!!

This book is great for the organic gardener. We've enjoyed all of the information in this book. We highly recommend it onto others. :)

Great book - easy read

This is an easy to read, easy to understand book on organic gardening. It is very straight forward and doesn't assume more than basic gardening knowledge - just as it should.

Easy and Informative

Good primer for a beginning organic gardener. You can read it cover to cover or skip around to find information on your specific organic gardening needs. The book takes a pragmatic look at the challenges of organic gardening while keeping the "first, do no harm" philosophy in tact. The technical information and references are comprehensive without being overwhelming.
