This book is amazing! Jim explains things in a way that is easy to understand, even if your botany background is still a little spotty. I feel like this book will help me both for growing food crops as well as beginning to save my own seeds to use and share with others.

I got this book from the library and am sad that there's another person in line—I'd love to have some extra time to take some notes, but may break down and actually purchase the book.

I got this book from the library and am sad that there's another person in line—I'd love to have some extra time to take some notes, but may break down and actually purchase the book.

The only drawback of this book is that the author is based in the Northeast, and I'm in Texas. So, some of the options he recommends will not work in my climate and I'll need to experiment and make some tweaks; however, that is all part of the fun.

If you grow food crops as a home gardener, even if it's just a couple of pots of tomatoes, you will love this book. I feel like I learned a lot and that Jim explained things well enough that I've been able to explain the concepts to non-gardeners without any problems, too!

Anyway, keep your eyes open for this book!

A quick and easy read doing exactly what it says it does. The book gives good information to the home gardener beginning to start saving seeds. Not for intermediate or advanced savers.
