Publisher's Note The kitchen garden is an American tradition. Nothing affects the taste and nutrition of the dishes prepared in your kitchen more than the freshness of the ingredients used. And what could be fresher than vegetables and herbs taken straight from the garden to your kitchen? You can grow your own food while beautifying the grounds around your home. Whether it's how to design an organic vegetable garden, plant herbs in your yard or in containers or control pests and diseases, everything you need to know is here. How to design a garden in spaces large or small, level or rocky. How to extend the growing season, how to harvest, preserve and store vegetables. And, to top it off, a section of more than 40 delicious recipes that use garden-fresh produce and herbs. These recipes are accompanied by helpful tips on vegetable preparation and cooking.
