LA806 - Timber Press Guide to Vegetable Gardening in the Northeast
Quantity:
Growing vegetables requires regionally specific information, since deciding what to plant, when to plant it and when to harvest depends largely on local weather conditions and the length of the growing season.
This guide focuses on the northeastern parts of the USA and Canada, an area of North America with diverse weather patterns that share a few features, including warmer winters, hazy summers, very wet springs and the occasional tropical storm. The varied conditions make for an interesting challenge for gardeners, but one that can be overcome with thorough planning.
After a comprehensive introduction to gardening in the area, featuring gardening 101 and planning guide sections, the book provides a month-by-month annual schedule to help organize your efforts. It also offers an A-Z plant list along with handy conversion and hardiness zones charts.
Softcover, 232 pages, 2013.
