by
Jay North
As the world population inflates and metropolitan areas continue to expand,
urban sprawl has quickly overtaken the natural landscape. Yet within these concrete jungles, a new breed of gardener
has emerged, one that is willing to work in constrictive environment to produce tiny porch gardens and patio crops.
The upsurge of urban gardeners calls for a new wave of literature
to encourage their homegrown hobby. The entire planet is becoming aware of the importance and benefits of organic
farming, including health improvements and financial freedom. Enter organic farming innovator Jay North and his
time tested organic growing practices. In his new book, The Windowsill
Organic Gardener: Organic Growing for the Urban Gardener, Jay shows city dwellers how to grow their own favorite
vegetables, herbs and edible flowers in windowsill boxes, inside their own homes. This organic process is done
without gardening hydroponically and free of high intensity lights.
The Windowsill Organic Gardener is for anyone who appreciates fresh, healthy, organic vegetables and would like
their own window ledge to brim with tomatoes, baby lettuces, summer squash, fresh herbs, and more. With clear,
lively, user-friendly language, windowsill gardeners are given intricate step-by-step instruction on rearing a
bounty of healthful organic vegetables, herbs, edible flowers and more. Readers enjoy sound advice ranging from
everything they need to get started, choosing the right crops, and caring for their growing plants.
