Got this from the library yesterday and read 75% of it, leaving the tables and information pages for later when I might use them.

Overall it was a very good introduction to gardening and farming the organic way. Lots of tips and thoughts on how to get a garden going from the beginning to the end.

In short the book can be summarized by the following:

1.) Set out a good space.

2.) Till the soil, aerate it and treat/amend it with compost, manure or other naturally found fertilizers

3.) Know when to plant, harvest and then cover over with a winter cover crop.
