Everyone did a terrific job covering homegrown food that is available from their backyard during their featured month. You’ll find plenty of hints for raising food for your family and yummy recipes too! This book is really fun to read and best of all, it’s completely free! A lot of hard work went into preparing this book, so you may not copy or distribute it without permission. Feel free to share a link with your friends and readers to the fine blogs listed above.
