Sustainable market farming : intensive vegetable production on a few acres  Cover Image Book Book

Sustainable market farming : intensive vegetable production on a few acres / Pam Dawling ; foreword by Lynn Byczynski.

Dawling, Pam, (author.).

Summary:

Across North America, an agricultural renaissance is unfolding. A growing number of market gardeners are emerging to feed our appetite for organic, regional produce. But most of the available resources on food production are aimed at the backyard or hobby gardener who wants to supplement their family's diet with a few homegrown fruits and vegetables. Targeted at serious growers in every climate zone, Sustainable Market Farming is a comprehensive manual for small-scale farmers raising organic crops sustainably on a few acres.
