The first graphic novel guide to growing a successful raised bed
vegetable garden, from planning, prepping, and planting, to
troubleshooting, care, and harvesting.
"A fun read packed with practical advice, it's the perfect resource
for new gardeners, guiding you through every step to plant, grow, and
harvest a thriving and productive food garden."--Joe Lamp'l, founder and
creator of the Online Gardening Academy
Like having your own personal gardening mentor at your side, The Comic
Book Guide to Growing Food is the story of Mia, an eager young
professional who wants to grow her own vegetables but doesn't know where
to start, and George, her retired neighbor who loves gardening and walks
her through each step of the process. Throughout the book, cheat sheets
sum up George's key facts and techniques, providing a handy quick
reference for anyone starting their first vegetable garden, including
how to find the best location, which vegetables are easiest to grow, how
to pick out the healthiest plants at the store, when (and when not) to
water, how to protect your plants from pests, and what to do with extra
produce if you grow too much.
If you are a visual learner, beginning gardener, looking for something
new, or have struggled to grow vegetables in the past, you'll find this
unique illustrated format ideal because many gardening concepts--from
proper planting techniques to building raised beds--are easier to grasp
when presented visually, step by step. Easy and entertaining, The Comic
Book Guide to Growing Food makes homegrown vegetables fun and
achievable.
