Review Quotes

Review:

As I have been building my permaculture nursery I have been pondering how to encourage people to start

gardening; even if they don't have a yard. This book is the answer! This is an easy read with how well

written it is yet has enough information that I would love to use it as the textbook for a small/container

gardening course.

This is an easy book to recommend and will be the first book for sale in my nursery.
