Two Books to Get You Started with Your Victory Garden
Guest contributor Pamela Price is the founder of Red, White & Grew, a blog devoted to “Promoting the Victory Garden Revival and other simple, earth-friendly endeavors as bipartisan, patriotic acts in an age of uncertainty.”
A couple of weeks ago, I contemplated the role personality might play in how one approaches the creation and cultivation of a contemporary Victory Garden.
Because one reader expressed interest in a simple guide to creating a garden, I wanted to follow up with a couple of recommendations.
Keeping in mind the over-simplified contrast of messy vs. tidy (a contrast that I first started to contemplate by looking at these two books side-by-side!), allow me to suggest two very fine books for the newbie gardener’s shelf. Together with Heather Flores’ outstanding Food Not Lawns, they are my favorite go-to resources.
