Summary: fantastic introduction to organic gardening
Review: Discusses chemicals vs. organics, how to reverse the damage chemicals have done to your soil, how to generate healthy soil, plant varieties and their role in a healthy garden, planting techniques, mulching, organic fertilizers, pest control, and an excellent glossary of terms. Recipes for homemade pest control and fertilizer. Good "product rate chart" to help in applications. How did I garden without it?

Summary: Wonderful Manual
Review: This book is a wonderful manual for a person who wants to start gardening the Natural Way. I have read the book cover to cover and continue to refer to it each time I encounter something new in my yard. There is a great calendar which gives you items which you should do each month of the year. I listen the his radio talk show every Sunday.

Review: This book is excellent for beginners and experts alike. It explains techniques, procedures and products in a manner the novice can understand. An added bonus is the conversion measurement tables and monthly "To Do List" listed in the back section of the book.
