This is another book I grabbed immediately from netgalley because of my love for one of my newest hobbies, vegetable gardening (free copy from netgalley in exchange for an honest review).

This book starts from the beginning with explaining the different zones, the difference in climates within each zone (though I find it interesting that her last frost dates for our area is off by two weeks minimum) and how that will affect your garden.

There's everything from the sun, to the soil, how to start plants from seeds, different types of fertilizer, mulching, composting, watering, etc., to planning your garden plot (this was the section I found the most interesting, as we are doubling the size of our garden next year & I'm completely replotting the whole garden layout). The book then goes month by month on what you should be doing for your garden.

All in all, this is a great little resource book, but I think more ideally suited to raw beginners. I've only had a garden for two years, and I really didn't see any new information, which was disappointing to me. I also would have liked to have seen pretty photos, something this book is severely lacking (and why I give the book only 4 stars).
