Thank you to Fox Chapel Publishing/CompanionHouse Books and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This is good, basic information. attractively put together, for beginning gardeners who want to use organic methods. I consider myself a balcony enthusiast, and my knowledge until now has come more through trial and error, so parts of this book were extremely helpful. I also enjoyed the appendixes with DIY tips.
However, it did feel as though the author was trying to cover too much ground for one book, by addressing any size of garden from balcony through to largish plots of land. One other small niggle was with the photos - they were beautiful, but I would have liked pictures more specific to the text, rather than stock photos.
