Dear Mel,
<!--[if !vml]-->New orleans<!--[endif]-->

What better time then right now to help spread the word of Square Foot Gardening to everyone you know! Your neighbors, your friends, your church, at the office and shop, your relatives all over the country, in fact anyone you know anywhere in the world? You can be a huge help to the Square Foot Gardening Foundation and spread the word and encourage everyone to start a  small  SFG right now.  Suggest they start with just one 4'x 4' box and as they learn the system and gain experience, then they can then expand later. They can start with small easy to grow crops. Read more.....

What other garden authors are saying about Square Foot Gardening.

<!--[if !vml]-->Jeff-Bredenberg<!--[endif]-->Here is what Jeff  Bredenberg has to say in his new book (we will announce the title and date as soon as it is available) about Mel's 5 Mind-Blowing Truths About Gardening.

Mel Bartholomew is the gardening author who pioneered the revolutionary concept of Square Foot Gardening, a technique recently updated in his new book The All New Square Foot Gardening. Appalled at the time-wasting, effort-wasting, money-wasting practices he witnessed among home gardeners, Bartholomew applied his engineering skills to devise a simpler, easier way. Which makes him a hero to easy gardening enthusiasts. You will find out more about Square Foot Gardening in my chapter 6, but for now ponder these five truths about gardening that Bartholomew shared with me:

New Product!
<!--[if !vml]-->arbor<!--[endif]--> Create a spectacular focal point in your yard with this 4'x4'x6' vertical arbor.  Tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, or even pumpkins can grow right over your head.  Can be installed and planted any time of the year-it's not too late now to have it up and ready for all summer as well as a  fall crop of  sugar snap peas.  

Constructed out of galvanized steel, it is sturdy, strong, and long-lasting.  Can be set up as a walk-through arbor (as shown), with the unbreakable nylon netting included going up and over the top, then down the opposite side OR a 3-sided walk-in arbor for a sit-down bench making a cozy retreat. Adding netting to the 4th side makes a completely enclosed arbor for maximum harvest or even make an opening for the kids to crawl inside to have a secret garden.
