Pam,
Thanks for the heads-up about your book too! I just checked it out on Amazon and then ordered it through my local bookseller. Looks great!
Will also look forward to the Fortier book.
Hope everyone has had a better growing season than I have! I guess we'll talk about it in another month or so...
:)

Westchester County NY, where it's still way above normal temps, no sign of frost, and right now we're under a tornado watch!

Another interesting book coming out in Spring 2014 is Grow a Complete Diet by Cindy Connor. http://homeplaceearth.wordpress.com/2013/08/13/grow-a-sustainable-diet-the-book/ Her book is "for folks who want to grow all, or a substantial amount, of their food and do it in a way that has a small ecological footprint."Etienne, thanks for telling us about the translation of this book by Jean-Martin Fortier. I'd love to review it on my blog www.sustainablemarketfarming.com. I'm interested to read about the micro-farming method used on the 1.5 acres of La Grelinette.As you say, there is room for various approaches to small-scale vegetable production. I hope you will enjoy reading my book this winter. (I've included metric units as well as US, so it's more accessible to more people.) My book started with articles I wrote for Growing for Market magazine (www.growingformarket.com) and grew from there.Updating and filling out the topics took quite a lot of time! My book includes various methods suitable for small farms, including those bigger than micro-farms, which use some tractor equipment.
Lots of good winter reading
