Four Season Vegetable Gardening

EXCELLENT book: The 12 Month Gardner

20 years ago

Hi all,

Got this book at the library, and am putting it on my "must have" list, and I live in SoCal where no frost protection is needed! "The 12 month Gardener, Simple Strategies for Extending Your Growing Season" by Jeff Ashton. Lark Books, 2001.

It's all about season extenders using row covers, simple cold frames, etc. The book is full of hints, and written with an easy style. Beautiful, clear pix.

Try your local library.

Cool! I live in S. Florida, so that would be a good book for me too.

Only thing I hate about winter gardening here is that the collards never get frozen, so they're always bitter. I planted the Florida collards once, and they grew into trees!
