The Timber Press Guide To Vegetable Gardening In Southern California (Regional Vegetable Gardening Series)

Grow your own food in the Golden State! There is nothing more regionally specific than vegetable gardening—what to plant, when to plant it, and when to harvest are decisions based on climate, weather, and first frost. The Timber Press Guide to Vegetable Gardening in Southern California, by regional expert Geri Miller, focuses on the unique eccentricities of California’s gardening calendar, which include extreme temperatures and low rainfall. The month-by-month format makes it perfect for beginners and accessible to everyone—gardeners can start gardening the month they pick it up.

I took a chance on this one, since the title says it's for southern california, and I live in Tennessee. However, I quickly found out it is great information for any part of the country. This book is everything I've been wanting in a vegetable gardening book. I've needed one that tells me in simple terms what to do BY MONTH in order to get the most out of my garden. I'm one of those people who needs a lot of help, as I'm just getting started in raising my own food, and I was feeling overwhelmed by all the book choices, all the things to know to do and not do. For me, this is just the perfect, go-to book that lays things out simply, but with no shortage of information and help. The woman knows her stuff.. I feel sure this book will be dogeared and underlined into unrecognizable shape in a year or two. Get it. You won't be disappointed.

This is such a great reference! Gardening in Los Angeles is so idiosyncratic, we really need our own guide and I refer to mine constantly! Highly recommended!

Helpful and informative information for my growing region. Easy to use, tabs are a nice addition.

As expected
