Why read it?
1 author picked Gardening When It Counts as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

So even though our current smaller plot only feeds us a side dish or three per day, I tend to think of gardening as something that should be good for our wallets as well as our bellies and the earth. Gardening When It Counts is all that and is 100% based on the author's personal experience growing most of his own food. Highly recommended.
From Anna's list on for beyond-organic gardeners.
