Four-Season Harvest will have you feasting on fresh produce from your garden all through the winter. If you love the joys of eating home-garden vegetables but always thought those joys had to stop at the end of summer, this book is for you. The author shows how North American gardeners can successfully raise a wide variety of traditional vegetables all year round. 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 actually lies at the same latitude as his farm in Maine (much of North America actually has as much sun as the south of France!). This story of sunshine, weather patterns, old limitations and expectations, and new realities is delightfully innovative in the best gardening tradition. The author is known as 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.
