One of the bestselling garden books ever is fresher than ever Ready to inspire a whole new generation of gardeners.When he created the "square foot gardening" method, Mel Bartholomew, a retired engineer and efficiency expert, found the solution to the frustrations of most gardeners. His revolutionary system is simple: it's an ingenious planting method based on using square foot blocks of garden space instead of rows. Gardeners build up, not down, so there's no digging and no tilling after the first year. And the method requires less thinning, less weeding, and less watering."I found a better way to garden, one that's more efficient, more manageable, and requires less work," Bartholomew explains. Not surprisingly, his method quickly received worldwide recognition and has been written up in every major newspaper and gardening magazine. His book, which served as the companion to the nationally acclaimed television series, has sold over 800,000 copies. Now freshened with new illustrations, the book Ingram calls "the largest selling garden book in America" is reissued for the delight of a whole new generation of gardeners.

This book is the best gardening book. I have just designed my garden using a friends copy of this book. I have now brought my own copy because I love it so much. My garden looks fantastic and I was able to plant so much more then if I had just done my garden like I used too. My garden is very big but it is great that you can do small portable gardens on your deck or put your garden on wheels etc. The technique is very simple and the book explains everything very simply so even someone with little gardening experience like me can have a great looking vegie patch.
Love this book. Fabulous detail. Inspirational for any home veg grower. How long each crop takes from germination until harvest (and even ideas on cooking) When to plant each and how.Everything you need to know.
This book, whilst written for the American market and climate, is very helpful on establishing a good size garden using minimum space. The theory and concept is quite sound, and will be most helpful not only to a beginner gardner but additionally those who have a good understanding of growing vegetables but need to make the maximun use of space in confined areas.
Interesting read with some good strategies to reduce work in the garden and keep a constant (manageable) supply of fresh vegetables available. Easy to read.
