It's Easy to Enjoy Fresh Garden Produce Year Round
"This wonderful book will guide you on how to grow fresh produce year round in Canada without having a heated greenhouse. I bought this book for myself several years ago and still refer to it. I purchased it for my sister recently to take to her new home in Atlantic Canada so she can explore the possibilities of year round gardening. The author, Niki Jabbour, lives in Nova Scotia and she provides a wealth of information on growing fresh garden produce for year round consumption, including our cold winters. This book provides information on which vegetables grow well, when to plant for each season, garden layout, row covers, hoop tunnels, cold frames with detailed instructions on each, including how to build a cold frame. It's an easy read, with photos and diagrams to demonstrate and the instructions are clear and concise. I highly recommend it."
