Here is the only single-volume reference that supplies all the information necessary to plant a successful organic food garden. Before it was a book, THE FACT HUNGRY ORGANIC GARDENER was organic gardener Tanya L K Denckla's private database, the distillation of years of hands-on, real-life, dirt-under-the-fingernails experience in organic gardens. Interest in organic gardening is increasing, and THE FACT HUNGRY ORGANIC GARDENER is the one book that answers all the questions that sprout up among novice, intermediate and even experienced gardeners.
