I picked up this book to read after a failed raised bed garden. I learned that planning is very important part of this process. After reading this book I will try again and plan what I will plant better. I learned about focusing on location for low growing plants and tall plants and about succession planting. This book also had good advice on drip tape irrigation

The author leaves nothing to chance when it comes to soil, measurements, and even coffee grounds as a slug repellent. Big thumbs up.

The book was very informative and well-researched, which helped me understand the importance of planning, building, and maintaining my garden properly. I loved learning about the no-dig method, which gave me a better understanding of how to approach my garden. The author's advice on the best planting techniques, including spacing, watering, and crop rotation, was invaluable.
