Vegetables in the California Garden: A Home Gardener's Guide

“A chatty, friendly swapping of good ideas on vegetable-growing with something for berries and fruits,” is how author Ross Gast described Vegetables in the California Garden when it was first published in 1933. “If you have never tasted vegetables from the garden, you do not know what real flavor is.” Whether you’re already a hands-on gardener, or a novice seeking inspiration and instruction to plot your very own Victory Garden, this book offers sage advice to help you prepare the soil, select the seeds—including heirlooms—and plant, maintain and harvest your home-grown produce. Complete with berry-growing information from Walter Knott—written even before he founded Knott’s Berry Farm—this California classic has long been considered the best resource on the market for gardeners in the know.
