Growing Perennial Foods
Description
Grow food that comes back for free every year! This book — aimed at novices but full of great tips for all gardeners — profiles popular perennial herbs, fruits and vegetables, with explicit instructions on how to plant, grow, harvest, store and preserve them. Perennials can weather climate extremes, promote healthy soil, mitigate drought conditions, and thrive without chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Many can be harvested year-’round. They taste good, pack lots of nutrients, and require little tending. Why isn’t everyone doing this? Illustrated. By Acadia Tucker. Paperback. 280 pages.
