      In this excellent reference for home gardeners and farmers alike, coauthors McCrate and Halm, founders of Seattle Urban Farm Company, illustrate how vegetable growers can utilize their available garden space for maximum harvests. From seed to storage, the book covers everything from site planning, garden mapping, and crop selection to soil preparation, setting up an irrigation system, and managing a home nursery. Three different high-production gardens are profiled and used as guides and inspiration throughout: a 400-square-foot urban plot, a 1,040-square-foot suburban plot, and an 8,000-square-foot rural plot. With worksheets, charts, and tables galore, the volume also includes an extensive collection of links for people who prefer to do their record keeping, an essential tool of the high-yield garden arsenal, on a computer. Appendixes and a list of suppliers round out this rich, thoughtful resource. VERDICT Recommended for gardeners who are serious about vegetable production, and whose goals may include providing food for their families year-round, or selling their produce at market.--Venessa Hughes, Buffalo, NY
