well an enormous amount of
practical and useful information
for the beginning gardener and
expert alike.

She and her husband have work'

their half-acre of Southern New
Hampshire and have perfected
the husband-and-wifc system

Icspics, have small incomes,
small properties and large fam

Method for splitting and mov

Abovo all, the author shows
how one piece of land, however
small, can be used and enjoyed
in an endless number of ways
