Thank you to NetGalley & the publisher for providing an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I grew up helping in the small garden out back, where we grew potatoes, tomatoes & green beans mostly. After years of dorm and apartment living, I'm excited to finally be back in a situation where I can garden outside and am prepping and planning for my first vegetable garden at my first house this year.

This book is chock full of information - especially if you're new to gardening, getting back to gardening after many years (like myself), or maybe even if you've been thinking about expanding an existing garden.

The reason I gave it 4 starts instead of 5 is that, while the title is Gardening for Everyone, it kind of glosses over those that live in apartments or otherwise don't have a yard in which they can garden. It does offer a few suggestions for container gardening inside, but it's such a small portion of the book that if I were still in an apartment, it would have made me grumpy & feel misled by the title.

It also doesn't talk about the accessibility of gardening for disabled folks or people with chronic pain conditions. I have a few different conditions that mean I don't have reliable amounts of energy every single day -- While there are certainly some methods in here that can lend to more accessibility (like raised garden beds to prevent back/hip/knee pain), I think it's a worthwhile topic to ponder on.

All in all, seems like a fantastic resource & I'd quite like a physical copy for myself once released.
