See more detail | | 5. Four-Season Harvest
Four-Season Harvest by Eliot Coleman, one of America's leading practitioners of organic gardening and farming. He has pioneered a "plant-positive" approach to horticulture that surpasses chemical-dependent agriculture in every way - producing vegetables that are exceptionally nutritious, delicious, and healthy. If you enjoy eating home-garden vegetables but always thought those joys had to stop at the end of summer, this book is for you. Coleman introduces the surprising fact that most of the United States has more winter sunshine than the south of France. He shows how North American gardeners can successfully use that sun to raise a wide variety of traditional winter vegetables in backyard cold frames and plastic-covered tunnel greenhouses without supplementary heat. He expands upon his own experiences with new ideas learned on a winter-vegetable pilgrimage across the ocean to the acknowledged kingdom of vegetable cuisine, the southern part of France, which lies on the 44th parallel, the same latitude as his farm in Maine.
