Great Tips for Small-Space Gardening

I live in an apartment with a good sized and sunny patio, and this audiobook was exactly what I needed to get my container garden started. The advice is practical and easy to follow, even for someone with zero gardening experience like me. I've already started planning what I'll grow and making my shopping list, this has really motivated me! The narrator’s voice made it enjoyable to listen to, and I took a lot of notes. Definitely recommend if you're working with limited space!
