Burpee has created a truly encyclopedic, but non-intimidating, guide to organic vegetable gardening that can be used and appreciated by anyone, whether or not they’ve ever stuck a seed in the ground. All the essential information is here–how to condition the soil, how and where to plant, sprouting schedules, what kind of yield to expect from each plant variety, and harvesting tips–in beautiful, bountiful, illustrated detail; the book’s largest section, “Plant Portraits,” contains explanations of the many cultivars of each vegetable and herb. If you’re a novice vegetable gardener or new to organic gardening and can only afford one gardening guide, this may be your best value.
