Victory Gardener’s Rave Over New Grow Your Own Food Made Easy Guide
Inexpensive, accurate, practical — Grow Your Own Food Made Easy promotes money-saving, space-efficient, Earth-friendly gardening dedicated to growing and harvesting optimally nutritious produce for personal health and food security.
Eugene, OR, March 26, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Inspired by the new White House kitchen garden, and the current recession, millions of people are choosing to grow their own food for food security and financial savings. Fortunately, they have a new, compact, and affordable (only $6.95) 68-page guide to help them out: Grow Your Own Food Made Easy (Cortesia Press, 2009). Million-copy bestselling authors, gardeners and wellness practitioners, Dr. C. Forrest McDowell and Tricia Clark-McDowell have done it again with their newest Made Easy guide — showing how to easily grow highly nutritious organic produce in a small garden patch, with huge grocery bill savings.
Earth-Friendly
Fully color-illustrated, Grow Your Own Food Made Easy gives accurate, concise and easy step-by-step instructions on over 25 Earth-friendly gardening subjects, including soil preparation, raised-beds, natural fertilizers, companion planting, cover crops, mulching, natural pest control, and more. Co-author Tricia Clark-McDowell notes: “We wanted to introduce gardeners to the joys of food gardening by taking the “fluff” out of more expensive gardening books, while still providing state-of-the-art information. The result is the ability to grow enough produce in 100 square feet to save as much as $100 a month in food bills.”
Nutrition Connection
Over 16 pages provide invaluable tips for growing vegetables and fruits that help reduce cancer risk, aid in weight control, and increase ingestion of protein, calcium, iron, vitamins A & C and more. Included are detailed charts of nutritional, harvesting, storage and eating information for over 40 vegetables and fruits, including sample food garden designs. “This is the only guide of its kind that integrates nutrition and gardening,” says Dr. C. Forrest McDowell. “All information has been carefully researched from USDA guidelines and leading health and nutrition organizations. Nutrition and healthy eating is a major concern in peoples’ diets; optimally nutritious and fresh produce from your own garden is a major step towards better health.”
