The Kitchen Garden: A Month by Month Guide to Growing Your Own Fruits and Vegetables [Buckingham, Alan] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Kitchen Garden: A Month by Month Guide to Growing Your Own Fruits and Vegetables

Review: A MUST-HAVE gardening book!!!! - This is my second must-have book for growing things myself (see Fruit by the same author). I HAD to buy this book after checking it out of my library!! I normally won't buy a book for more than $5, preferring to wait (years, if I have to) for the price to go down, but this book is worth having NOW! I have been gardening seriously for 3 years, and read everything I can from the library and online to help me be successful - this book has it all!!! First, the pictures....WOW!! They are beautiful and detailed! But THE BEST part of this book has to be The Kitchen Garden Calendar. It takes the guess-work out of planting and growing! I find myself turning to this calendar almost every day, to help me plan and time my seedlings and garden work. The calendar is broken up into months, with each month having sections like "Top Tasks", and "Sow or Plant", and "Jobs for...". Also included are special sections placed where you might think of doing them, like "Wage war on weeds" in June, and "Make your own compost bin" in September. There is also a Crop Planner section in the last 200 or so pages, that lists everything you could ever want to grow with mini calendars and tips, and in the very back, a What's Wrong section, with pictures, to help you tackle the inevitable troubles of growing. This book is like an encyclopedia, and I never put it away!! I think it is perfect for a beginner, and oh-so-valuable for experienced gardeners. It has given me confidence to grow anything I want to, and made it exciting and fun instead of mysterious. It has also helped me organize my gardening jobs and planting, so I am working more efficiently. Did I mention I LOVE this book!? :-D If you want to grow your own food and are looking for books to help you, start with THIS book -- you may not need to buy any other!
Review: You need this book - Love this book! Found it at my local library when researching starting a garden. Loved it so much I had to buy it. It will be helpfully for years to come! Great for new gardeners (me) but I feel it could be useful for even experienced gardeners. Single page synopsis of individual plants make it easy for a quick reference. Monthly to do lists make the hard work of gardening more manageable. In Perth explanations of commonly used garden techniques and tools make it beginner friendly. Recommend this to anyone with a garden!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ edible ideas
*by G***6 on April 28, 2013*

this is a great book divided into months, with gardening suggestions for the edible garden. great photographs, great presentation, nice print, and lots of wonderful information. i am a master gardener and have just begun to grow some vegetables. edible gardening is easy, but the basics must be followed to get great results. this book provides more than the basics and for those of you who like to garden; it will be one of your favorites. the book seems very up-to-date and offers crop planning and trouble shooting advice. each vegetable is photographed with tips on how to grow and how to harvest. there is a section on fruits, lots of tables and inset graphics. i think i like the layout of the book, just as much as i like the information. very easy to read and follow with lots of small boxes to look at , for those of us who don't like to read a textbook.
