Author
Jeanne Grunert walks fledgling gardeners through all the basics with ease. Even
the most hesitant beginner will find potentially complicated subjects simple to
understand and incorporate into their new gardens. Everything is concisely covered, from herbs
to flowers to vegetables.
You'll
start off with some worksheets to add substance to your garden-related dreams
and goals. Then you'll dispel some
common garden myths that may have held you back from beginning that first
garden project. Next you'll discover the
basic equipment you need--which isn't as much as you may think! Finally, you'll uncover the real basics: light, shade, soil,
compost, water, plant types and more. All are presented in ways anyone can
understand.
Jeanne Grunert shows you that you don't have to be a scientist to
have a successful, thriving garden.
If
you've been overwhelmed before about the volumes of information that you
thought you needed to read before starting the garden you've always wanted, Get Your Hands Dirty is here to save the
day. It is the essential guide for beginners and a perfect refresher for old
hands. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in having a
garden."

"I am all thumbs, and none of them are green. I have spent
many years trying to grow various plants, looking for help from as many
resources I could find with no success. I even managed to kill an aloe plant.
After reading Get Your Hands Dirty: A Beginner's Guide to Gardening I
finally discovered that I had been trying to plant someone else's garden all
these years.
The author provides the resources you need to create a garden that suits your
region as well as your lifestyle. The practical guide offers simple exercises
combined with information about which plants suit specific environments. The
book provides everything you need to know to succeed in the art of gardening,
especially for those who know what to plant but have no idea when
to plant. Get Your Hands Dirty offers something other gardening
resources do not--a way to create your own garden thorough building a
relationship with your land."
