About this ebook
You've tried planting a few vegetables before.
You grew some tomatoes, maybe some kale and a carrot or two. You figured 'sticking these in the ground and follow the instructions, how hard can it be?'.
At first, things went well. Then, the tomatoes started looking very miserable, an ant colony has taken over the kale and you're now growing so many weeds a machete seems like a reasonable purchase...
In this guide author Jatte shows how she grows her own fruits and vegetables in her own backyard. She harvested 135 pounds of fruits and vegetables each year and is on a mission to prove you can too. In this book, she shares how she grows all this produce, the exact varieties of plants she grows and shares her framework for deciding how and what to grow. Let's dive in!
