Shows us how to garden like our ancestors gardened . . . with just four basic hand tools, and with little or no electricity or irrigation. --Carol Deppe, author of The Resilient Gardener

In hard times, the family can be greatly helped by growing a highly productive food garden, requiring little cash outlay or watering. This book shows that any family with access to 3-5,000 sq. ft. of garden land can halve their food costs using a growing system requiring just the odd bucketful of household wastewater, perhaps two hundred dollars' worth of hand tools.

Gardening When It Counts helps readers rediscover traditional low-input gardening methods to produce healthy food. Currently popular intensive vegetable gardening methods are largely inappropriate to the new circumstances we find ourselves in. Crowded raised beds require high inputs of water, fertility and organic matter, and demand large amounts of human time and effort. Prior to the 1970s, North American home food growing used more land with less labor, with wider plant spacing, with less or no irrigation, and all done with sharp hand tools. But these sustainable systems have been largely forgotten.

Designed for readers with no experience and applicable to most areas in the English-speaking world except the tropics and hot deserts, Gardening When It Counts is inspiring increasing numbers of North Americans to achieve some measure of backyard food self-sufficiency.

Delightfully informative and abundantly rich with humor and grandfatherly wisdom. A must-read for anyone wanting a feast off the land of their own making. --Elaine Smitha, host of the Evolving Ideas cable talk show and author of If You Make the Rules, How Come You're Not Boss?

The ultimate bible for organic vegetable gardening in the Pacific Northwest, featuring extensive updates and new material on soil health, natural pest control, and more

Now in its seventh edition, this complete guide to organic vegetable, herb, and flower gardening addresses issues of soil, seeds, compost, and watering. Growing Vegetables West of the Cascades has evolved from a self-published pamphlet into the master guide to organic gardening over the past thirty-five years. Steve Solomon, who founded the Territorial Seed Company, was one of the early proponents of organic gardening, and the first to codify and refine the best practices of small-plot vegetable gardening in the Pacific Northwest. The approaches to understanding and preparing soils, composting, chemical-free fertilizers, efficient uses of water, and garden planning are universal to any climate or region. Solomon gets specific in his extensive advice on growing specific crops--from tomatoes and beans to kale and turnips--in the gentle maritime Northwest climate.

This new and updated edition includes:

- A new formula for complete organic fertilizer and how to tweak it for different soil conditions
- How-to sections for herbs and ornamental plants
- New organization for better usability
- Updated sources for appropriate seed suppliers
- Information about natural pest controls

It is bold, it is courageous, and it challenges many of our preconceptions about food, about soils, about farming, and about health. --Michael Ableman, farmer, author of Farm the City

To grow produce of the highest nutritional quality, the essential minerals lacking in our soil from intensive agriculture must be replaced. The Intelligent Gardener is the practical, step-by-step guide for any serious gardener who wants to:

• Demystify this process
• Debunk much of the false and misleading information perpetuated by both the conventional and organic agricultural movements
• Re-mineralize our soil.

Accompanied with customizable web-based spreadsheets, this toolkit calls for far more attention to detail than the simple addition of composted manure or NPK fertilizers. It conclusively establishes the link between healthy soil, healthy food, and healthy people.

Vegetables, fruits, and grains are a major source of vital nutrients, but centuries of intensive agriculture have depleted our soils to historic lows. As a result, the broccoli you consume today may have less than half the vitamins and minerals that the equivalent serving would have contained a hundred years ago. This is a matter of serious concern, since poor nutrition has been linked to myriad health problems including cancer, heart disease, obesity, high blood pressure, and diabetes. For optimum health we must increase the nutrient density of our foods to the levels enjoyed by previous generations.

The Intelligent Gardener goes beyond organic--it offers the essential tools for those who care about the quality of the produce they grow.

It's hard to imagine this book not having a significant and lasting impact on the way organic farmers and gardeners grow their crops. --Mark McDonald, West Coast Seeds

Back in the '70's, I made the momentous move from the East Coast to the West and quickly discovered that much of my garden knowledge needed an update. Seattle's climate was unlike anything I had experienced in Massachusetts or Ohio or Colorado, and many of my favorite vegetables simply didn't grow well. A friend steered me to a new seed company, a tiny business called Territorial Seed, unique in that, rather than trying to tout its wares all over the country, it would only sell to people living west of the Cascade Mountains. Every vegetable and cover crop listed had been carefully tested and selected by Steve Solomon for its performance in the maritime Northwest.

Isabelle Moser was born in 1940 and died in 1996. She had been fending off cancer since its first blow up when she was 26 years old. Coping with her own dicey health had been a major motivator for her interest in healing others. She will tell you more about it in this book.

The greatest accomplishment of her 56 years was to meld virtually all available knowledge about health and healing into a workable and most importantly, a simple model that allowed her to have amazing success. Her system is simple enough that even a generally well-educated non-medico can grasp it. And use it without consulting a doctor every time a symptom appears.

From the author After publishing my first book in 2012, A Rainbow Of Emotions (ROE for short), I decided to continue writing. However, in the course of a few short years, there were a plethora of significant changes in my life that had drastic effects on my way of thinking. The most significant change of them all is that I had gone from being a believer, to a disciple of Christ. Obviously this has had a tremendous impact on my writing. This book reflects this transition as the poems have been written over the first four years of my salvation and its contents are solely based on Christian ideology giving praise to our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. By publishing this book I not only intend to give my brothers and sisters in Christ something both entertaining and inspirational to read, but I also hope that someone out there that is unsure of where they stand (spiritually) may find hope and strengthen their faith through the message of the gospel which has inspired me and had a tremendously positive impact on my life. Lastly, I must recognize the three brethren that have also contributed to the final product of this book. First I thank my two proofreaders whom have requested to remain anonymously out of the spotlight I would also like to thank my brother in Christ Dan Pellegrino Jr. from kingdomimpactdesign.com for designing the cover art for this book. Without them being the furnace to this work, this would be a lump of unrefined gold with the dross still inside. I hope you are more blessed by reading this book than I was to write it. Peace and grace to you all Steve Solomon
