Grow Your Own Food was fantastic - it had so much great information. It inspired me and helped me believe I could actually grow my own food despite having a black thumb. I loved the tips and what to plant during each month - so helpful for a beginner like me. I am so excited to start my own garden!

I'm a terrible gardener. I try, but I lose interest. This book gives me ideas to makes it less burdensome which may help me stick with it from planting to harvest.

I loved this book so much it will be added to my library. I'm a new grower and felt this was a great blueprint to growing my own food.

I've never really tried growing much on my own because the "green thumb" gene missed me ;-). After reading this, I think I may try it again with next year's spring gardening season.

The upcoming year I want to have a beautiful garden in my backyard with raised beds so I can grow my own vegetables. I love that this book talks about it all and tells you what you will need and so much more. Like what is open pollinating, what propagating your plants and how to make them grown beautifully. The best part for me it tells you month by month what to plant. I know each area is different but known what I can plant and when I should plant make all the difference. I also like that it talks about what insects and bugs you would see in your garden as well. So if your a beginner just learning about gardening and want need a way to go this book would be great.

This is a great book for any beginner gardener. As we finish this growing season in many area it's time to look forward to next years garden. Have a friend who wants to try gardening this year because of high prices? Well buy them this book as a gift and start them off on a life long journey of growing their own food. As a gardener i would highly recommend this book.

This is a very useful book to read if you are planning to try growing some food in your garden, and having read it I’m really considering getting my garden ready this year for growing some fruit and veg next year!
It has lots of great information to take you right from making sure you have the right tools , to planting, growing and what the plants look like when they’re best to be harvested.
My favourite bit of the book is the monthly planner that tells you what tasks to do during each calendar month, which, for someone inexperienced like me, will be invaluable.
And for those with sufficient space, it even takes you through how to keep chickens.
A great book that I would definitely recommend.

This is a must-have resource! It is full of great strategies, advice, and easy to implement ideas. This is one I'll return to again and again.

This book is a great introduction to growing your own food. It's full of information, tips, and practical applications. And it's presented in a clear and approachable way.

The month by month section, with tasks and lists of things to plant and prepare for each month, is very helpful. It's specific to the author's climate (UK), but they can be adapted to fit any region. And I really appreciate the section that explains how to know when you should harvest.

This book is a useful resource and something that can be referred to again and again.

This was a quick read. The color photos and drawings of the various plants and gardening items were great. I like how the author gives you several items to use to make raised beds along with tools one needs for gardening. Each month has tips and what to plant during that month. There’s even a chapter on raising chickens.
