Square Foot Gardening by Mel Bartholomew

Square Foot Gardening Third Edition by Mel Bartholomew

In All-New Square Food Gardening, 3rd Edition, the best-selling gardening book in North America, is re-launched and updated for the next generation of gardeners and beyond.

Since its introduction in 1981, Square Foot Gardening, the revolutionary new way to garden developed by Mel Bartholomew, has helped millions of home gardeners grow more fresh produce in less space and with less work.

Now, based mainly on the input and experience of these millions, the system has been further refined and improved to fully meet today's changing resources, needs, and challenges.

With over 150 new photos and illustrations, this new edition makes achieving nearly foolproof results in virtually any situation easier than ever: 100% of the produce, 20% of the water, and 5% of the work.

Perfect for experienced Square-Foot-Gardeners or beginners, the original method created by Mel has not changed in any significant way with this new 3rd edition of All New Square Foot Gardening. It remains: build a box, fill it with Mel's Mix, and add a grid.

Along with the classic steps, you will find some exciting and compelling new information, such as:

• Adding trellises and archways
• Substituting with new materials
• Adding automatic watering systems
• "Thinking Outside the Box" with creative configurations and shapes
• Square Foot Gardening in dense urban areas with little or no yard
• Square Foot Gardening with kids
