Re: Best garden book for small vegetable gardens?


Any Rodale's book on vegetables. Try the Rodale garden problem solver. All
of these books are so stuffed full of information that I learn more each
time I read a section. Plus, they only use organic growing/pest control
methods. For a non-organic book I wood say one of the Reader's Digest Home
Guides -- I have the one on herbs -- lots of pictures with separate
cultivation, harvest, cooking sections. They also have a vegetable
gardening one.

Best Herb book I have is Rodale's Illustrated Encyclopedia of Herbs -- lots
of pictures, lots of info from historical uses to crafts.
