I think I have convinced my hubby that we start this year on getting raised beds to garden next year. I have suggested both square foot and lasagna gardening approach. So far, from what he has researched, he likes them both. Now all I need are recommendations on good books on those subjects!

If you have a book that you found with useful and good information for new-ish gardners ..what is the title of that book(s).
(on square foot gardening and also lasagna gardening)
Thanks

I have to agree with Diane. I follow the recipe for "Mel's Mix" and my veggies do so well!

Sqaure Foot Gardening by Mel Bartholomew, hands down the best raised garden advice.

Happy to be a "Raggedy Ann" in a Barbie World!

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.
