Square Foot Gardening

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

Square Foot Gardening is the newest book by best selling garden author Mel Bartholomew. I’ll have to say it’s a dandy.

If you are wanting to start your own garden and feel overwhelmed, this is the book for you. In just one hour, you will be able to learn this simple method of gardening.

Here’s what it’s all about:
1. Learn how to grow more in less space with Mel’s square foot growing boxes. Great pictures and instructions are in the book.
2. No need to dig up existing grass.
3. No fertilizing needed.
4. Learn ingredients of Mel’s special growing mix.
5. How to plant your all new square foot garden.
6. Growing and harvesting techniques. Culinary herbs included
7. Vertical gardening. Take your vine crops up instead of out.
8. Learn how to extend the season.
9. Learn more about special gardens for those with no yard, wooded yards, hillsides, decks, gardens for seniors, and many more.

I paid about $20 for this book (well worth it I might add), but you can order this great book cheaper ($12) at Amazon.com by clicking on the link below.
