The Best Gardening Books Curated By New Terra Farm

Not Dewey Decimal, more like 'Do we know where that book is'?

I read. A lot. My personal library of farming and gardening books has over 150 print titles, with a bunch more on my phone.

When I  REALLY find a book indispensable, I like to have the print copy on hand. Never know what's going on with the interwebs, and I hope to pass these books down to the offspring one day.

On this page I've curated the most useful books I've discovered over the years. I'm pushing the hard copies, but many of them can be found on that Evil South American River as well.

Best Gardening Books

The books on this list are the best choices I've found for learning the practicalities of market gardening. They have have been a valuable reference when planning and working my 1-acre-plus garden.

Each has a spot in my garden library wall.

Best Farming Books

I've curated a selection of the best gardening books on the Bookshop site:

  • home vegetable gardening;
  • organic gardening;
  • raised bed gardening
  • market gardening;
  • survival gardening; and
  • best gardening books for kids

In most cases, these are books I've either read or I'm familiar with the author from other books. And a couple I recommend just because they cover an important topic and fill a 'gap'.
