Staff Pick

No Pacific Northwest gardener's library is complete without a copy of Seattle Tilth's Maritime Northwest Garden Guide.  This bestselling manual takes the guesswork out of PNW gardening, offering month-by-month gardening recommendations, tips for extending the growing season, details on the vegetable, herb, and flower varieties best suited to the region, a directory of local resources, and much, much more...  Are you kicking yourself for not having kept a gardening journal last year? Determined not to make the same mistakes twice, but can't remember what they were? Overwhelmed by the sheer quantity and variety of gardening books available and don't know where to start? You need this book.

Publisher Comments:

In order to keep the Maritime Northwest Garden Guide an accurate resource for Northwest organic gardeners, the book has been updated for its third printing. Areas updated include the seed houses, compost & gardening resources, and reference book lists, with websites added as appropriate. A section on educational websites for NW gardening was also included. The Guide still includes the detailed monthly gardening calendar, as well as:
  • Maritime Northwest Climate Zone Map
  • How to extend the growing season
  • Completely revised and updated vegetable, herb, and flower variety recommendations
  • Month-by-month gardening recommendations
  • Beneficial insect identification
  • How to beat common plant diseases organically
  • Getting organic outside the garden
  • Ideas for gardening with children
The Maritime Northwest Garden Guide continues to be the "must have" resource for novice and expert Northwest gardeners alike.

As a new gardener who is also new to the Northwest, this guide has been invaluable. It's now the first place I go for answers, and I've been using it to plan out when to start seeds, plant outdoors, and the best methods for maintaining the soil. It covers everything from bugs and fertilizers to extending the growing season and testing your soil. Definitely worth more than $10!
