I personally bought this book. There was no agreement with the author, publisher, or any third party that I would publish a review. The following review is unsolicited, unbiased, and all opinions are my own.
Review – Spoiler Free
This book was suggested to help me start a garden in our incredibly rocky, compacted soil. I loved the concept of no-dig gardening, but was feeling overwhelmed with where to begin, and this book was definitely helpful. Nardozzi writes in a relaxed voice that is easy to follow and understand, communicating the difference between soil types, why to plant lettuce between tomatoes, and which trees to avoid using in a hügelkultur mound, with casual clarity.
If you just want to do no-dig gardening with raised beds, you can quickly and easily figure it out. If you want to convert and existing, tilled garden to a no-dig style, a 1 page step-by-step outlines the basics. If you want to understand more about what makes the no-dig gardening method work, you can dive into the chapter on soil.
More of a reference and how-to guide, than a front-to-back read, a lot of the information is repeated in multiple parts. There was a chapter on the benefits of the no-dig gardening method that probably could have been summed up in the introduction and the picture captions frequently reiterated information already communicated on the respective page (a peeve of mine). This can be annoying when reading the book’s entirety, but makes it more enabling for people to get started with a specific no-dig project.
Overall, I loved how this book communicated the ease of starting and maintaining a no-dig garden. Much of that information I won’t need to read again, having now understood and applied it; but I learned a lot on my read through, and I will be keeping this book for reference to some handy charts, my margin notes, and loaning to friends.… (más)
