Save seeds, save money, and increase profit from your small-scale farm or market garden!

The Seed Farmer is required reading for any grower who cares about being part of a truly sustainable local food system.

• Detailed profiles and practical, hands-on growing and harvesting techniques for dozens of vegetable and flower crops
