The anti-crisis vegetable garden - Save money by growing your own vegetables

Eating healthily and at lower cost has become one of the major concerns of the French... because whether it's ecological or economic, the crisis is forcing us to consume differently. Growing your own vegetable garden means spending less, eating organic produce and reducing your impact on the planet.

Rodolphe Grosléziat brings together in this book his unparalleled experience of vegetable gardening: for each crop, he has sought out the simplest, healthiest and most "profitable" techniques. Starting "from scratch", over the years he has achieved virtual self-sufficiency, and now feeds his family all year round with vegetables from his garden, grown without fertilizers or pesticides. On average, this feat takes him no more than half an hour a day. What's more, Rodolphe keeps track of his harvests according to market prices, proving to us with figures that "vegetable gardening is worth the cost", since the savings achieved represent between 2.5 and 3 times the value of a monthly minimum wage per year...
