Vegetable Garden Book

[lovemyflock]

Ok, So what is your favorite organic vegetable garden book for the beginner?? I'm talking instruction manual.

This year's garden was a complete failure , and I want to get prepared for next year. Improving soil over the winter, and composting for fertilizer during growing.

Any of the Rodale Encyclopedia's of Organic Gardening are decent. They have several editions. You need not buy the newest one to get good info.

Don't feel bad about a disastrous gardening year. I've been gardening for a long time and still have some monumental failures from time to time. Since you seem to want to try it again next year it must have done something for you.

Another book I can't recommend highly enough is Green Thoughts by Eleanor Perenyi. She has nice dry sense of humor about the challenges and triumphs of gardening, as well as good practical information too.

Anyway, keep your chin up and try again next year
