Gardening for Everyone is a sustainable guide to growing vegetables in five simple steps: planning, building, planting, tending and harvesting. With the same wisdom and stunning aesthetic as Simply Living Well, Julia's beautiful new book is a guide to creating and growing a garden simply and sustainably with profiles of essential vegetables and herbs, ecological tips, and fun and creative projects. Growing food in your backyard (or even on a porch or windowsill!) is one of the simplest and most rewarding ways to nourish yourself, be self-sufficient and connect with nature in a hands-on way. Here sustainability expert Julia Watkins shares everything you need to know to grow your own vegetables, fruits and herbs, as well as wildflowers and other beneficial companion plants. The book covers all the nuts and bolts of creating and caring for your garden - planning, building, planting, tending and harvesting - followed by a deeper dive into the plants themselves: demystifying annuals vs. perennials, cold-weather vs. warm-weather veggies, and profiles of favorite crops. Throughout, Julia offers tips for creating an eco-friendly and sustainable garden (such as vermicomposting, no-till 'lasagna' gardening, and attracting pollinators), plus some fun and unexpected hands-on projects like how to build a bean teepee, make wildflower seed paper, and enjoy refreshing herbal lemonade ice pops.

Julia Watkins has a wide variety of gardening experience, beginning with her grandparents' garden, gardening in a variety of jobs and in various sized backyards, even gardening as a Peace Corp worker in West Africa. Gardening for Everyone is a resource book organized by stages: planning, tending, building, planting, harvesting, and playing. She supplies plant profiles for many common kitchen garden plants. Watkins is definitely not a one size fits all gardener. She inspires gardeners with lots of options for creative use of space, even indoors. Her fun and practical ideas for playing will bring out the creative child in all of her readers. The photographs in this book are particularly beautiful and inspiring.
