Thorough and Informative,
By mybalconyjungle (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Microgreens: A Guide To Growing Nutrient Packed Greens (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book. I was put off at first by all the full page colour photos, the extra whitespace on the pages and the presence of a recipes section. All of it seemed like padding to me. But once I started reading I realized the authors know what they are talking about. Their knowledge is backed up by experience which they share throughout the books pages.The layout is logical and well thought out. I particularly liked the section that describes each type of microgreen. Lots of detail. You could probably take all the information in this book and compact it to something half its size and weight (and price!). But that's not to imply they haven't covered the topic of microgreen production thoroughly. Everything you need to know is in here whether you're like me and growing microgreens for your own consumption or doing it as a small business.

If I can do it....,
By G. Basil - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Microgreens: A Guide To Growing Nutrient Packed Greens (Paperback)
I read the book after a recent trip to the west coast where I tried micro greens for the first time. They were really enjoyable and so I became curious. This was the first piece of written material I came across on the stuff, and I'm glad I did. Not only did it answer all the questions I had about the "what are they?" but then it helped me dive head first into the "now go do it yourself".I live in New York City and am not lucky enough to have my own backyard. Turns out I have about all the space I need on my fire escape and roof to put together a very productive micro greens garden. I'm also not the greeniest of green thumbs, but found myself following the directions close enough to where my micro greens came out happy, healthy, and delicious. Very happy I did this and I can't wait to share the experience and tastes with my guests! 26 of 28 people found the following review helpful

Informative and Beautiful Book,
By R. Doyle - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Microgreens: A Guide To Growing Nutrient Packed Greens (Paperback)
If you're interested in Microgreens, check this book out! I've only eaten microgreens in high-end restaurants. Even more, they're very expensive at the market....when you can find them. This book is an excellent tool for growing the greens myself. After reading this book, I feel that even I can do this. The "Sources" section lists organic places that I can order the seeds and soil I'll need. The paper quality in this book is surprisingly exceptional and the photos are gorgeous!

This is a remarkable book. As a grower myself (Fresh Origins), I can confidently recommend it as the best information on the topic available at this time.
