Beginning seed saving for the home gardener

Ulager, Jim 1977- (author.).

Summary: "Many people garden because they enjoy the independence of producing their own food. Yet for many, the how and why of producing seeds remains mysterious and even intimidating. This book explores how seed saving is not only easier than we think, but why it is essential for vibrant, independent, and bountiful gardens."--
