The guide includes more than 150 edible plants and helps you decide which varieties to choose; where and how to plant, tend, and harvest them; including what to do with your bounty. Fresh from the Garden is a clear, concise guide, with nutrition information tables, and hundreds of helpful color photos.
Drawing on more than 50 years of gardening—and nearly as many years writing on the subject—John Whitman describes various methods of planting to make the most of different sites, whether in containers, raised beds, or on level ground and takes into consideration the abbreviated growing season and longer summer days. He discusses the merits of starting from seed indoors or outdoors, the making and uses of compost, and measures for keeping a garden healthy, from mulching and fertilizing to crop rotation and winter protection.
Included in his wealth of knowledge is a generous listing of more than 1,700 varieties of vegetables, berries, and herbs from the best known to the highly unusual, including hybrid and heirloom varieties. He covers the specifics of cultivation, nutritional values, storage techniques, and culinary usage. Dedicated to organic practices, for the health of gardener and garden alike, the information and advice in Fresh from the Garden will enrich the experience of cold climate gardeners.
