Now that you've mastered gardening basics, you want to enjoy your bounty year-round, right? Homegrown Pantry picks up where beginning gardening books leave off, with in-depth profiles of the 55 most popular crops - including beans, beets, squash, tomatoes, and much more - to keep your pantry stocked throughout the year. Each vegetable profile highlights how many plants to grow for a year's worth of eating, and which storage methods work best for specific varieties. Author Barbara Pleasant culls tips from decades of her own gardening experience and from growers across North America to offer planting, care, and harvesting refreshers for every region and each vegetable.

A productive food garden can provide an abundance of vegetables, fruits, and herbs to enjoy year round - as long as the right mix of crops is grown, stored, and preserved. Homegrown Pantry guides readers through this process, from plant selection and growing to kitchen and pantry.
