Quoted from Back Cover:
Gardening for Health and Nutrition presents simple, down-to-earth processes for raising one’s own unsprayed, organically grown vegetables with a minimum of time and labor and a maximum of enjoyment and deep satisfaction in the observation of, and cooperation with, nature. At the heart of Gardening for Health and Nutrition is a blend of the spiritual and the practical which recognizes that a garden is actually a constantly changing, interdependent network of living things. John and Helen Philbrick apply principles of organic gardening to an understanding of the inner dynamics and subtle energies at play in a successfully managed garden plot. The result is a compact and comprehensive guide that covers the concept of Bio-Dynamic gardening ~ soil analysis and lime ~ planning the vegetable garden ~ choice of tools ~ the need for, and preparation of, raised beds ~ selection of seeds ~ preparing and using compost ~ care of the garden ~ proper vcrop rotation, cover crops, and green manuring ~ coping with insect pests ~ mulching ~ saving seeds ~ restoration of soil fertility ~ the balanced interaction between substance and energy in soil and growing plant ~ cultivating herbs, flowers, lawns, and home orchards ~ plus many other topics to ensure healthy soil and healthy plants.
