Growing your own vegetables, culinary herbs, and fruit brings a very special satisfaction to gardening. There are, of course, substantial savings to be made in turning a small investment on seed or plants into a regular supply of food for the table, whether you grow only a selection of choice seasonal crops, such as asparagus, or strive for self-sufficiency. For those concerned about additives in commercially produced food, there is the security of knowing exactly how your produce has been grown. The exceptional pleasure of kitchen gardening lies, however, in the subtlety and freshness of flavor of crops gathered straight from your garden—a flavor that has not been diminished by long transportation, storage, or special packaging.
This book is offering all the basics, from soil preparation and organic manures, to authoritative advice on every aspect of productive growing.
