practical and detailed
This was a practical and detailed book, and I’m looking forward to trying out the succession plans next year. Shame it wasn’t published for Christmas - I would have liked to have got started this year!

I have a California backyard garden and grow veggies year-round. If you are just starting a garden, it may be overwhelming to begin with a garden of their size, but the book offers some good basic how-tos that will be helpful to a gardener. For someone interested in expanding their garden and working their way to becoming self-sufficient, this book offers some good ideas on how to start.
This book covers creating the garden, what to grow, and tasks throughout the year. It also offers a few basic recipes and garden-growing skills.
