Default Market Gardening Book

For anyone interested I found a book on a blog ( the deliberate agrarian?) anyway,( I found it at the library as I wanted to read it before I bought it). It is an excellent small growers handbook for small scale organic farming ideas in it . It is clear and concise with the references where to buy the tools he has found to be the most utilized, how to utilize your space most economically, weeding, soil building and LOTS more.

The book is called: the Market Gardener by: Jean-Martin Fortier

For anyone interested there is a page in the front of the book for you to order it if you are interested in owning a copy as a reference for your book shelf. I know I like to underline and sometimes mark up pages for things that interest me... the library frowns on it if I do it to their book. He makes a living on less than 2 acres of land. He and his wife with one employee to do a CSA and a farmers market.
