Summary:
"Moving to Newfoundland from the Gulf Islands of British Columbia was a shock for long-time gardener Dan Rubin. Accustomed to warm, calm, and relatively predictable weather, Rubin faced long winters, strong winds, and constant salt spray at his new property perched on the edge of the north Atlantic. Twenty years later, Rubin’s productive and lush seaside
garden
is filled with a range of crops, from tomatoes, squash, and greens to plums, artichokes, and even peaches.
Sun
,
Seed
and
Soil
is a collection of practical
tips
and
techniques
for gardening in
northern
, colder climates, based on Rubin’s personal experiences and discoveries. This book offers valuable advice for Canadian gardeners -- particularly in Atlantic Canada -- as well as those in the
northern
United States, or anyone facing similar challenging growing conditions.
Sun

soil
; Protecting plants from wind and cold to extend the growing season by months ; Using sustainable, regenerative approaches and avoid the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers ; Growing common
garden
food plants, herbs, flowers, fruit trees and bushes."--Publisher.
