A passion for gardening First released in 1982, Gardening Under the Archhas long been hailed as the gardening bible for the challenging chinook region of southwestern Alberta. Now, for the first time since its original publication, this hugely successful book has been revised and updated into a full-colour edition by some of its original contributors and a new group of gardeners. This unique book is truly a work of the heart. Hardly slick, not at all highbrow, Gardening Under the Archis full of practical, homespun know-how based on the collective wisdom gleaned over years by determined gardeners in the chinook zone. There is knowledge here that can't be found in other books, and there is loads of passion for the love of gardening and all the special moments it brings. Gardening Under the Archprovides insight and inspiration, from the first sunny day in spring when you dig your beds to that cold winter's day when you enjoy a freshly baked pie made with the fruit you have grown.
Down-to-earth, easy-to-prepare, inexpensive recipes for home cooking are at the heart of this cookbook inspired by foods from the garden. Ingredients can be purchased locally through farmers' markets (or grocery stores), but if you want to grow your own, this book tells you how. Written by the same people who brought you Gardening Under the Arch, Cooking Under the Arch is about more than fruits and vegetables. It's about soups, salads, casseroles, desserts, beverages, wines, vinegars, wild fruits, jellies and preserves, sauces, pickles, chutney and relishes, toasted seeds, edible flowers, sauerkraut, rosehips, baby food and more. Recipes are interspersed with informative essays about growing vegetables, transplanting, raised beds, herbs, fruit, community gardens and farmers' markets. If you've ever wondered how to make your aunt's great Crabapple Pie or Sugar Snap Omelette, or had a craving for Grandma's Rosy Rhubarb Punch or Ripe Tomato Chutney, this is the book for you.
