In “The Latest Dirt…in Gardening Books,” Jill Mickel at the Lawrence Public Library recently said some great things about Urban Farming:
I especially like that this book by Thomas J. Fox provides a philosophical and historical background for urban farming, including an in-depth discussion of the meaning of sustainability.
It is a great resource for anyone that wants to grow food or flowers in limited space. This can be accomplished in small plots, in containers, on roofs...pretty much no matter your space or location, there is something that you can grow. Whether you are growing just a few varieties to jazz up your purchased produce—or you want to become a market farmer—you will be able to learn what you need with this book.
Thanks, Jill!
