Excellent resource book. This book is chock full of information on planting, protecting, using and preserving the produce from your garden. There was information new to me, even though I've had a garden for over 30 years. Written clear and concise with solutions to many garden pests and problems. Beautiful pictures and tasty recipes fill the pages. I am adding this to my list of appropriate gifts for various occasions. I am sure the receivers will be thrilled with it. |
