If you are an intermediate or advanced gardener looking to level-up your growing skills, Simplify Vegetable Gardening is the ideal reference for meeting your goal. Your garden will flourish with the help of Tony’s growing prowess and eye-opening approach to enhancing plant health and yields that relies on a clear understanding of the interconnectedness of Earth’s many systems and how they each affect plant growth.

From the soil food web’s impact on plant nutrition and the atmosphere’s connection to photosynthesis to the effects of the water cycle on plant transpiration, Tony offers a deep dive into the science of growing a robust and sustainable home garden. You will learn how to:
 
  • Optimize plant health by understanding mineral nutrition 
  • Enhance soil tilth by fostering the right microorganisms
  • Maximize plant breeding and propagation techniques to grow more and better-adapted plants
  • Boost production through the understanding of essential plant functions
  • Improve biodiversity and plant resilience by adopting a mixed planting strategy
  • Be a crucial part of your regional food system and enhance community food security

Plus, diversify your garden’s offerings through profiles of 16 plant families that encompass 81 different food crops. Each family profile provides information on how to cultivate these plants based on the commonalities of the plant family in which they belong.

Starting with the “Why?” and ending with the “Wow!”, Simplify Vegetable Gardening is exactly what you need to help your edible garden reach peak performance.
