Any Size, Anywhere Edible Gardening

A review by Delaware County Master Gardener, Susan Liechty
 
Any Size, Anywhere Edible Gardening
By:  William Moss

The no yard, no time, no problem way to grow your own food

Whether you live in a condo, apartment, have a rooftop garden or postage size back yard, this book if for you.  William Moss teaches you to grow just about any edible in containers,  window boxes, small space and community gardens.

If you thought you could never grow vegetables, herbs and other edibles, this book will walk you step by step through.  I liked his chapter on time saving tips for all those folks who have downsized, moved or have reached a time in their lives that large garden spaces are out of their reach.  He explains how you can still grow your favorite vegetable or herb no matter where you live.

Moss lists his Top 10 Edibles for Containers and covers how to plant, grow and pick those gems.

Thank you to Cool Springs Press and Garden Writers Association for sharing this wonderful book.  It was a joy to read and even though I have wonderful space in which to grow my edibles, this book will be shared with those in my life who have small spaces or live in condos or apartments.

About the author
William Moss is wears many hats; he is the host of HGTV's Dig In, a writer for many publications, has made appearances on Good Morning America, QVC's Gardening Made Easy and CBS This Morning.  He is also a spokesman for the National Gardening Association and an instructor for the Chicago Botanic Garden, and much, much more. It's no wonder why his nickname is the "Garden Boss".

Available at your favorite book store.
