Grow like a pro with the garden guide from The Old Farmer’s Almanac

Colorful gardening annual – from the editors of The Old Farmer’s Almanac—features new trends, big flavors and timeless wisdom for growing vegetables, fruit, herbs and heirlooms.

This year’s edition of the garden guide celebrates the potential of the garden: from tasty new takes on favorite vegetable garden standbys to small-space–friendly fruit trees, to Old World raised beds (what’s hügelkultur, anyway?).

In the 2017 guide, intrepid gardeners will find adventure with odd-looking vegetables that deliver fantastic flavors. Curious crops—including sunchokes, kohlrabi  and celeriac—share center stage with fresh herbs, the tiny powerhouses of aroma and flavor.

In this full-color magazine, you’ll also find features on:

--How (and why) to build a compost pile

--Growing bee-friendly gardens

--Cultivating wildflowers and lush biennials in the garden

--DIY wattles: homemade fencing, plant supports, and hoop houses

--Winning recipes for orchard-fresh apples

--Gardening advice from 225 years of The Old Farmer’s Almanac

The Garden Guide—like its parent publication, The Old Farmer’s Almanac—is published annually.
Its Web site, www.Almanac.com/Garden, offers tips, advice, and green inspiration every day. It also invites gardeners to ask questions and share advice and ideas.

The 2017 Garden Guide is now available for $4.99 at plant nurseries, home centers, and wherever books and magazines are sold. The digital version is available online at www.Almanac.com/Shop.
