SRP 2012 REVIEW: A great look at how farming can be worked into inner-city life. The book is more about building community, however, than gardening, although the gardening tips are great. You'll come away knowing how to compost and make healthy soil! The book will be used at North Central College in a course taken by all first year students starting Fall 2012.
