"Leads readers through the steps of planning, prepping, maintaining and harvesting the veggies and fruits, herbs and flowers typically grown in the backyard plot. Color photos and line drawings illustrate a variety of kitchen garden designs and approaches. Soil maintenance, crop rotation and seasonal chores are covered, while extensive chapters detailing vegetables and fruits offer a wealth of advice and tricks of the trade--e.g., growing celery in a trench, forcing rhubarb through a pot, training an apple tree to grow flat as an espalier against a fence or wall and starting fruit trees from hardwood cuttings.
