"Grow the foods you love to eat! Grow Cook Eat is a full-circle handbook that takes you from sinking a seed into the soil to sitting down to a healthy, delicious meal prepared with vegetables harvested from your kitchen garden. Pick and eat tender pea shoots, scatter spicy arugula blossoms over salads, and slice open tomatoes still warm from the afternoon sun. Master Gardener Willi Galloway guides you through the fifty best vegetables, fruits, and herbs and gives you the simple tools needed to eat seasonally from the garden, including planting and growing information, specific advice for harvesting and storing all the edible parts of a plant, and delicious, easy-to-prepare recipes and cooking ideas. Filled with beautiful photographs and engaging advice, Grow Cook Eat shows readers who value fresh, seasonal, local, organic foods that they can--and should--grow the herbs, fruits, and vegetables they love to eat."--Page 2 of cover
