Summary:
"Due to the high cost of transporting
food
long distances, the heightened problem of diseased caused by commercially grown foods, and concerns of the overuse of chemicals in mass
food
production, there's never been a more urgent time to start
growing
your
own
food
. Many people have already discovered the benefits of homegrown vegetables and fruits; community gardens, and even community canning centers, are increasingly popular, and rooftop gardening has become an accessible, healthy
food
source. Many plants can flourish in containers for even the smallest backyard or patio. The possibilities for
growing
your
own
food
are endless."--Back cover.
