‘This is really the only kitchen gardening book you’ll ever need.’

(Habitat Australia)

'Lyn Bagnall has produced a reference work of incredible proportions … It should become a benchmark book among the many smaller and not-so-thorough ones on the subject. Her research covers all likely, and unlikely, contingencies … Moon planting is extensively covered, a method that we also used in the middle of the twentieth century (and before) and which has sadly fallen by the wayside in modern times. Aspiring and experienced gardeners of all kinds will find the wide range of this book extremely helpful.’

Pat Coleby, author of 'Natural Farming'

‘If you had to reduce your organic gardening library to just one book, this would be a good choice as it covers everything. It explains how to develop and retain healthy soil, what to plant and when for all Australian climate zones, the food garden, drought proofing, propagation and pruning, solving problems naturally, and much more ... For aspiring and experienced gardeners alike this book will make your whole garden more vigorous and a healthier haven for your family, pets and native wildlife.’

Anne Harrison (National Parks Journal)

‘This terrific book shows you how and why [organic gardening] should be done... [The book] could answer all my queries — in a straightforward, practical sort of way ...
