The other thing you can do is utilise the public library system. If your local library doesn't have a book on hand, there is interlibrary loan - they can get it for you from wherever it is in stock - it might take a couple of weeks, but... If you really like a book, then you can buy it. Another option might be asking around to see if there are any local organic gardeners/producers - try the local Farmers Market or health food store for names and contact info - and see if they would be willing to let you pick their brains for a listing of good books. If you offered to help out with any necessary chores - weeding, etc. - then you might get a good response. While some of their books might be oriented towards a larger scale than you want, the principles would be the same. IOf there is a local source for organic fertilisers then they would possibly be able to help, both with other organic gardeners and with a list of good books - just be careful they DO know something, and aren't just rying to sell the most-heavily-stocked-book! That said you might try anything by Elliot Coleman - even though he is in Maine, the principles are the same. However, finding local sources, or at least southern sources, would make the extrapolations and adjustments a LOT easier. Depending on where you got the book from, and if you beat it up while reading it, you might be able to return it. I have often returned books to Waldenbooks or B & N, simply saying that they weren't what I wanted. If you don't have the receipt, you'll probably get a store credit.

The last thing I read was The Modern Home Book. Very useful book, as I learned a lot about interior design, as well as home improvement, such as how to choose the right colors, or write about what types of designs there are and how they could be seamlessly combined into one style. All in all, I didn't regret downloading it from the torrent and reading it. If you still think that downloading for free is bad, then I advise you to find more info about The Pirate Bay, where you can see the reliability and benefits of these sites.

That's strange - I see you as a member since May 28. What happens when you go to the URL? I can remove you and have you join again if you want. I approved you again, maybe that will trigger it but you might have to leave and rejoin. https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/615019-kt-book-club Or do you mean Goodreads in general? I found this link about how to get another confirmation email. I added another email address to experiment and it said it needed to be verified and had an option to resend, though it wasn't in red. https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/283-how-do-i-verify-my-email-address

Hi everyone, I started the discussion threads for August. Unfortunately I haven't finished either book yet but I can look up some discussion questions when I get home. If anyone wants to jump in and get it going, please feel free!
