A good starter book for the new gardener. What veggies do you like? What meals do you cook most often? This should influence your plant choices to help ensure your success. Some rather tasty looking recioes too. I'll be making the garlic and herb gnocchi for dinner tonight.
I received this book from NetGalley.com and absolutely love it. My husband is a chef and I've been wanting to begin growing some of our own food. If you're systematic like me, this book will be incredibly helpful because it lays everything out in order. Greatly detailed and helpful. Thanks!
Lots of general information on how to grow vegetables and treat your garden. Good enough for this noob.

I would recommend that everyone from beginner garden enthusiasts to the more seasoned read this book. It's got a lot of good advice, and it for the more seasoned gardeners, it will have a lot of "I forgot about this" moments.
Thank goodness I have digital version, because I think I'll be refering back to it a lot. If it was a physical copy, it would become a very well worn dog-eared copy very quickly.
