Since I purchased, Growing Vegetables West of the Cascades: The Complete Guide to Organic Gardening, I have not been able to put it down. It is a very informative book and all about growing vegetables in our Pacific Northwest climate. The author goes into great detail about creating and maintaining the fertility of our soil for growing vitamin rich vegetables. He includes in his topics, composting, garden planning, watering, seeds and transplanting. I am so happy that I found this book. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in organic gardening. This book is packed with useful information and is easy to read.

this book is exactly, but exactly, what i was looking for. i wish i’d found it earlier, before i’d started my garden this year. well, many more years to profit from steve solomon’s experience and wisdom. this book is clear, to the point, well-reasoned, and clearly based on extensive experience and a thinking, testing, wondering mind. it’s a gem. now, what i would do to find a similar book for growing fruit in this area!! anyone know of one? ;)

To date this is the best book on the topic for the region. Organized and to the point, this book will not leave your side during growing season. Solomon knows the subject matter, and knows how to write. While I don’t agree with some of his points about pesticides and fertilizers, they represent a small portion of the book – and the fact that almost every page is now smudged with the soil from my garden is a testament in itself.
