| Abstract
|
:
|
The Gregson's passion for both organic farming and community supported agriculture is evident throughout the book. Best of all, they don't try to gloss over the less pleasant aspects of growing organically for a living. Anyone even dreaming about small scale farming will benefit from their experiences and examples.
