Would love to learn more about what you're doing. I just read The Market Gardener and am getting a little bit of land, but still very new.

- vinc 8y agoI got the land at the beginning of this year, started living on it last summer (northern hemisphere), I'm not really much ahead of you! The first year you just watch the land, see what happen naturally with the seasons. And then oh shit, so many things to do to get ready for the second year!
- vram22 8y ago>I just read The Market Gardener What's your impression of that book? Asking because interested in that area, have done some on it (organic gardening in general, though not the intensive kind like in that book), and have read a similar book by John Jeavons: http://www.johnjeavons.info/ http://www.johnjeavons.info/ Excerpt from this page on his site: http://www.johnjeavons.info/john-jeavons.html http://www.johnjeavons.info/john-jeavons.html [ A political science graduate of Yale University, Jeavons worked for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and Stanford University before launching his career in small-scale agriculture education. He is the author of the best-selling sustainable farming handbook How to Grow More Vegetables, Fruits, Nuts, Berries, Grains, and Other Crops Than You Ever Thought Possible On Less Land Than You Can Imagine, now in its 8th edition in eight languages ]
