About this title

Review:

This book is part of a practical gardening series from Garden Organic. It is one of the latest books in this series, published in 2008. Growing vegetable without chemicals is the best way. This book shows how to grow organically. With vegetables being sprayed with chemicals many times over, travelling miles to reach us, sitting in storage - it makes sense to grow your own. Half of this 64-page booklet is taken up with where, how to and suggestions for organic gardening. The remainder looks at the vegetables themselves. The instructions are easy to follow and are illustrated with full-colour photographs. There is little here for experienced vegetable growers, but this is a useful book for beginners. --karenplatt.co.uk
