I was gifted this gem of a book - what a trove of useful information for gardening and using what grows in the garden. I am so looking forward to trying some of the herbal recipes like rosewater and salt-drying florals.

2.5 rounded up - some of the fertilizer/pesticides advice is troublesome, but the crafting & herbal remedies solutions section was nice with good pictures.

This is a great little recipe book. It has simple recipes for soaps, insect repelants, natural plant pest solutions. A lot of the ingredients are common house things, or easy to find.
