Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)`Homegrown Harvest' is a guide, a book that urges everyone to grow at least some of their own food; whether they have a big yard or just a balcony. There are many lovely pictures of gardens and food that is growing - far better than any I have. Information is given on container gardens, raised beds and even in a bag. Many pictures attempt to show techniques such as testing your soil. There are good instructions on planting, including fruit bushes.
It would be better if there was more help with diseases and problems -pictures to identify them. A beginning gardener might need more help than this book provides. It is also a surprise, since they are advocating growing in even very small spaces that there is very little information on herbs, which could even be grown on windowsill gardens. There also needs to be more of an emphasis on what grows in different regions.
The book is organized into seasons, early, mid and late. There are vegetable sowing and harvesting charts which are very helpful.
For those who want to garden this will give plenty of charts and information on both growing and storing the food you have grown.
