If you’re interested in growing your own fruits and vegetables, you’ve joined the ranks of a blossoming group of DIY gardeners who place a premium on the idea of self-reliance. But like any other kind of gardening, growing edibles is not a one-size-fits-all pursuit: in order to be successful, you’ll need to know not only which plants grow well in your state or region, but also how to grow them with careful methods and a schedule that caters specifically to your local microclimate. Fortunately for you, Carolinas Fruit & Vegetable Gardening is written exclusively for gardeners who want to grow edibles in North or South Carolina. Author Katie Elzer-Peters, the seasoned Carolinas gardener responsible for our bestselling Beginner’s Illustrated Guide to Gardening (2012), equips you with all the information you need to design your edible garden, tend the soil, maintain your plants throughout their life cycles, and—most importantly—harvest the delicious foods they produce. So whether you live in the Research Triangle, the Sandhills, the Outer Banks, or anywhere else in the Carolinas, you’ll discover the best fruit and vegetable plants for your garden in this beautiful step-by-step how-to guide . . . and they’ll be on your table before you know it.

This is a nicely organized basic growing guide. It does not include all details to growing but it's definitely good for a beginner wanting to learn the basics and get their feet wet and not be so bogged down with too much info
This is focused around North and South Carolina gardening, that being said this does contain extremely useful and information most people would disregard i.e. brown tips on your plants give the sign it is not getting enough water, suggesting that nitrogen is needed. Just tons of tads of info packed into different categories.All that above being noted, this does go into great detail on planting, harvesting, and much more. If you garden in SC / NC this imo a MUST read (and own, don't resell, wonderful information).
This book helped a northwesterner figure out how to garden in the south. It gave clear and concise information about all the fruits and vegetables to grow in North Carolina.
Being from NY, we wanted to know how different our planting season would be, and what to plant. All our questions were answered and then some. We will certainly get a lot of information from this book.
This book is perfect for those living in our zone. It's easy to read and very well laid-out. The information is concise about the different fruits and vegetables, including soil makeup, planting tips, schedules and pests/diseases.
Easy to read and very informative for NC and SC plants
This is a very informative book, and fun to read.
