Resumen del Editor

It’s time for you to become self-sufficient and grow your own garden!

Are you interested in gardening?

Do you want to grow your food and become, if not fully, at least partly self-sustaining?

If you already garden as a hobby, you know how rewarding it can be, but have you ever considered taking it to the next level? Or are you a complete beginner and want to know what all the fuss is about?

People have been living off the land for millions of years, and in recent times, self-sustainability has become a hot topic. Rising costs in supermarkets and the lack of true organic produce have led to more and more people turning to their own gardens to provide some of their food. While many supermarkets claim to sell organic food, it's hard to know if it really is organic or if it's just a label. Many growers use chemicals to keep insects, diseases, and weeds away from their crops, and they use chemical fertilizers to produce bigger yields. All those chemicals go into your food, and even washing fruit and vegetables before you eat them doesn't do away with all of it.

The only way to eat truly organic and healthy produce is to grow your own, and over the years, I've made the mistakes and learned from them so that I can pass my knowledge on to you. That's why I wrote this guide, to help other people lessen their reliance on big companies and grow healthy food for themselves.

Here's what you will learn in this book:

• How to assess your growing plot and available space
• Different garden layouts to consider
• How to prepare your soil
• The tools you will need to get started
• Different gardening methods
• Raised bed gardening
• Row gardening
• Container gardening
• Square-foot gardening
• Four-square gardening
• The best vegetables, fruits, and herbs to grow with planting instructions
• Edible flowers
• Troubleshooting your plants
• Common pests and how to deal with them naturally
• Companion planting
• And a great deal more!

Make no mistake; gardening is not easy, but it is one of the most rewarding things you can do to help yourself toward a healthier life. Given events over the last few years, sustainability has become more important, so if you want to learn how to grow your own food, scroll up, hit that Buy Now button, and start on a journey of discovery that will change your direction in life.
