My Eclectic Garden
You are reading this summary because you are considering having a vegetable garden. Where do you start? Not by buying seeds or plants. You start by looking at what is under your feet - your soil. Soil is the first chapter and it is written in a straightforward smooth essay explaining soil, its makeup, its purpose and most importantly how it relates to you. Chapters that follow give the history of different vegetables, gardening and growing techniques, an educational read on botany rounding it out with actual personal experiences in my vegetable garden. A journey down through the ages culminating with the final destination on my plate. It is the globalization of food in its infancy. I practice monoculture, invite insects and pollinators to visit and provide them with a food source in the garden. This vegetable gardening essay is a seminar touring my garden written in a completely different format than other garden books.
