Doug Jimerson, Former VP, Editor-in-Chief of garden.com says, "If your idea of a kitchen garden is a tiny plot of wilting lettuce and overgrown radishes, you’re in for a surprise! Kitchen Garden Planner contains a bumper crop of colorful and creative kitchen garden plans where flowers, vegetables, and herbs intermingle." Rosalind Creasy, Author of The Edible Garden Series says, "Creative gardens, gorgeous layouts, and information you can trust. This book will energize even the most jaded gardener! What’s more, each of the featured gardens has its own unique style that you can easily duplicate in your own backyard."
