Product Description
Barbara Pleasant and Deborah L. Martin turn the compost bin upside down with their liberating system of keeping compost loads right in the garden, rather than in some dark confront behind the garage. The compost and the plants live together from the beginning in a wholesome, organic environment. The authors’ unstinted, compost-rich gardens require less digging, weeding, mulching, and even less planting. And here’s one of the best parts — no more backbreaking slogs from compost bin to garden. The authors even identify the plants that benefit most from compost and how the fundamentals of a composted garden work together.
A natural Six-Way Compost Farming System provides the ruling principles for successfully improving every garden with healthy compost. Readers will learn how to:
1. Choose labor-saving sites that keep gardens and compost piles as close to one another as possible.
2. Work with the compostable riches produced at home. Every yard and kitchen produces plenty of material — easily identified with at-a-glance charts — for a fantastic start.
3. Help composting critters do their work by balancing ingredients, adding high-nitrogen meals when needed, and keeping the compost moist.
4. Reuse recycling bin items, such as large plastic buckets and cardboard boxes, as composting equipment.
5. Keep diversity in the mix. The magic is in the variety of the components and how they work together to make “gardener’s gold.”
6. Customize composting to suit point garden needs, permanently concentrating first on soil care.
Adhering to these guidelines, Pleasant and Martin bring readers on a thorough, informative tour of materials and innovative techniques, leading the way to an well-organized and rewarding home farming system. Their methods are sure to help gardeners turn average vegetable plots into rich incubators of healthy produce, bursting with fresh flavor, and flower beds into rich tapestries of unstinted blooms all season long.

Although there is a lot of different information in the book it, in some instances, just briefly describes the technique, but offers no pictures or examples. Also, sometimes the descriptions of “How To” are not descriptive enough for me. I am a highly visual person so I need to also see what they are describing.

A lot of pages about composting with a lot of made up words about types of composting that I establish irritating. I would suggest the book, but be advised that if you know much about composting then this book will not help you learn a lot more
