What a surprise!

So far there has been nothing new for me and surprised to not see something on companion planting but then again I've only glanced through the book! A little surpeised and dissapointed with Mother Earth News and the lack of info in this book thus far!

Helpful book

I have grown vegetables in the past, but am starting again and want to do the best I can.
This book is going to be part of my new learning process.
So far, it has taught me many things I did not know and improved my skill on some that I did. I am enjoying this learning process now and later in the year, I shall also enjoy the fruits of my labors.
