Full description for The New Organic Grower
With more than 45,000 sold since 1988, The New Organic Grower has become a modern classic. In this newly revised and expanded edition, master grower Eliot Coleman continues to present the simplest and most sustainable ways of growing top-quality organic vegetables. Coleman updates practical information on marketing the harvest, on small-scale equipment, and on farming and gardening for the long-term health of the soil. The new book is thoroughly updated, and includes all-new chapters such as: * Farm-Generated Fertility - how to meet your soil-fertility needs from the resources of your own land, even if manure is not available. * The Moveable Feast - how to construct home-garden and commercial-scale greenhouses that can be easily moved to benefit plants and avoid insect and disease build-up. * The Winter Garden - how to plant, harvest, and sell hardy salad crops all winter long from unheated or minimally heated greenhouses. * Pests - how to find "plant-positive" rather than "pest-negative" solutions by growing healthy, naturally resistant plants. * The Information Resource - how and where to learn what you need to know to grow delicious organic vegetables, no matter where you live.
