Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
Great Book submitted by charlotte mayhew on August 17, 2020, 3:41pm This is a detailed reference for growing vegetables through cold winters. Coleman grows crops through Maine's snowy winters and gives clear advice on how to keep your food from freezing. The only downside is that he has a lot of land at his disposal and does not offer scaled-down suggestions.
