The revised edition of his first book, "Square Foot Gardening" is a much better source of information on how to use his system to grow food. The reason I bought this book was that it was supposed to have much more information about growing food on a large scale. That was what I was interested in. But, if you are more interested in marketing your produce, there is some info here that would be better suited to that.

Mel Bartholomew wrote a very helpful book for a beginning gardener. Even without using the money making guides, it still provides plenty of information about the square foot gardening system.

A very practical approach to using your garden to make money. Anyone can do it, as long as there are people to feed near you! Don't hesitate to grab this book as soon as possible if you dream of selling your crops for cash.

The book itself is a good book for anyone looking into gardening, especially with limited space.

It could have gone further into the actual square foot routine, however I hear one of the other books does this.

I found a lot of useful information, however there was a lot of repetitiveness throughout the book, which tempts one to skip through some areas.

If looking for soil recommendations, this does not get into soil mixes other than store purchased mixes. One very good, useful soil recipe with explanations can be found [...]

If looking to make a little extra money this book is useful.

Taxes.

Very informative on gardening for a profit. Also helpful for those new to gardening. And try "Square Foot Gardening", by Mel Bartholomew as well.

Very good book if you've ever though about selling your produce. I think it also is good if you like can or freeze your own also.

This book mainly deals with how to sell to restraunts. It has very little to do with the square foot gardening method.

I have all his books, and am a member of his website. I got the gardening down and have a couple of local resturants in mind.

This book listed here is the same ISBN for the book published in 2000 for way more than the cost. This same book can be had, as of 7-11-10 for $19.95. Someone is trying to make a big profit for a book that does not exist! but is a book listed at over half the cost.
