Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Southwest Kitchen Garden (Hardcover)

Had checked this book out of the library too many times to count. Full of down-to-earth (pun intended) practical advice & yummy recipes. Great little book for anyone interested in gardening in the Southwest.
