Summary: A Fabulous Primer for the Beginning Organic Grower
Review: I was interested in growing as many vegetables as possible in our small plot. Mr. Hamilton's book told me how this could be done (through a three year crop rotation and double digging). The book also told me how to take better care of my ornamentals, set up a compost bin to feed my soil, take care of nasty insects organically, prune fruit trees & so much more. I consider this book to be my 'Garden Bible'. I read it often & always find new things that I have missed or not had the chance to apply. Filled with pictures and diagrams, this book is a must have for gardeners who don't know where to begin. Read it during the winter months & plan your dream garden.

Summary: Oregon oranges?
Review: Who would have thought that I could grow oranges in Oregon? "that will never work!" , "your'e crazy". This was about as encouraging as it got.

Mr. Hamilton, thanks to you, I will be eating oranges this winter from my orange tree. The book is insightfull, and a wonderfull resource for the average gardener wanting to try something new with their plants. In addition to my oranges, I now have a wonderfull herb garden complete with purple basil, rosemary, and chives. All of which I can now identify with certain confidence thanks to the excellent photographs and visual resources. My tomato plants are providing enough fruit for all of my jealous neighbors, and the only hint I can give them is to buy the book, (seems obvious to me).

Thank you for the resource, I know I will apreciate even more this January when I am eating fresh oranges in Oregon!

Sincerely, Michael Bolz
