When you start thinking of soil as a living organism that has to be fed, your whole view of gardening changes. But keep in mind that soil-building is not a one-time operation - it's a process. Learn the tricks of the trade from a longtime horticultural expert who explains that the key to well-fed and happy plants lies in constantly replacing the humus, or the organic material, that is essential for releasing nutrients in a form that's easily absorbed by plant roots. Chemical fertilizers will not add humus to the soil. These are merely nutritional supplements; plants and their soil need real food.

From earthworms, green manures, and cover crops to mulching, composting, and no-till gardening, you'll find wise advice in an easy-to-understand style with a good dose of humor.
