In Toronto to promote his newly-released eighth book Guide to Canadian Vegetable Gardening (Cool Springs Press) Doug Green is happy to provide local residents with everything they need to know to simply and successfully grow vegetables. One of Canada’s top gardening experts, Green shares practical, budget-friendly tips for growing vegetables organically, including how-and-when-to information on planting, growing and harvesting more than 50 vegetables and herbs. Helpful charts and maps and full-colour images make this a book that will be referred to again and again.
Live in a townhouse, condominium or apartment? Green says, “No problem”. With half of all vegetables being grown in container gardens, Guide to Canadian Vegetable Gardening will help both urban dwellers and suburban gardeners experience the joys of growing their own edibles.
Green’s approach to gardening is “to have fun and eat well without working hard at it.” He says, “There is nothing quite like the taste of a freshly picked, juicy, vine-ripened tomato. That fresh, chin-dripping acid sweetness only comes from your own garden. I won’t even go on about combining herbs with your garden as I’ll assume you’ll want to tuck in a few here and there to complement the vegetables.”
Green’s one hour seminar Vegetable Gardening in Small Spaces will start at 1:00 PM on Sunday, May 03rd, 2009 in the outdoor garden centre at The Home Depot at 2121 St. Clair Avenue West, Toronto. It is free and no registration is required.
