From Seed to Table: Growing, Harvesting, Cooking, and Preserving Food

Tips and recipes for growing a bountiful vegetable garden in your own backyard

From Seed to Table offers the personal experiences of home gardening from one couple in Pennsylvania. Starting with winter, the book follows each season from the garden to the table. Robert and Patricia Zick share their gardening and preserving tips along with recipes for produce from the backyard. The Zicks hope some of their experience will inspire others to grow their own food and to eat local food as much as possible.

While not an exhaustive reference for all gardening, preserving, and cooking techniques, it is filled with firsthand accounts from an experienced gardener and a veteran cook.
