In the introduction the author says that this is the book she wished she'd had as a beginning gardener. While my husband and I are not beginning gardeners,we are fly-by-the-seat-of-our-pants gardeners, knowing that there is much to learn in order to increase our yield and to discourage pests. This book is wonderful for both types of gardeners. Some features that I found especially helpful are: the chart on companion planting, the full-season garden plan, the instructions for making your own soil mix, and the suggestions for maintaining your garden including ways to deal with common problems and pests. In the second part of the book, McSheehy provides specific information for growing thirty-five different food-producing plants.
I highly recommend Vegetable Gardening for Beginner. I will use it as a valued resource for years to come, and am very grateful to have received a copy from RockRidge Press in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review, and received no monetary compensation.
