Great info for those living in small spaces

As someone who lives has lived in very small spaces, I was very interested in this audiobook and was not disappointed. The narrator had a very calming and soothing voice that made it easy to listen to. There are even cute transitions with birds chirping, that I enjoyed.

What I found most interesting about this audiobook was the practical advice that was provided. I felt that the author was able to make the concept of gardening in small spaces accessible and understandable. Other audiobooks and books seem to make this process more complicated than it needs to be (or maybe more difficult than I want it to be).

He provided a wealth of information on the different types of plants that can be grown in containers and even on balconies. This was especially helpful for me since I don't have a lot of space to work with. Overall, I highly recommend this audiobook to anyone who is interested in learning more about urban farming and gardening in small spaces. I also like the references to helping the bees :)

If I transition to raised beds in the future, I’ll have that info on hand, too. There’s also mention of a FB group and some other free resources which I plan to check out.

Easy Gardening - Here I Come!

Both my grandmother and father were good gardeners and their gardens were truly beautiful sights - so why didn't I have the knack?
I think I've always expected growing things to just be in my DNA but I've had very few successes until I bought this audiobook and found out it is a skill that needs to be learned.
After listening and following John Marriner's advice, I'm starting to have some success and I now have a much clearer idea how it all works and what factors and habits encourage a flourishing crop.
The sections on fruit, veggies and herbs are put together in such an engaging way, it just enthuses you to get outside and get your hands dirty and now, heading into retirement, I've discovered a new passion with the added bonus of providing the household with some healthy, cost-effective and nourishing food.

YOUR GREEN (TOM) THUMB!

Even if you have the space and are already a gardener like me, “Simple Raided Bed and Container Gardening for Small Spaces” is loaded with excellent information and handy tips. I learned even more about the different fruits, veggies, and plants that can thrive in my growing zone and appreciated how organized this well-researched book by author Jan Marriner is. Narrator KC Wayman makes this an easy, engaging listen, and the birdsong sound effects between chapters is a nice touch. I can readily understand that for an urbanite or someone with limited space, this book represents a gold mine of actionable information. Also, the great PDF accompanying this book has growing zones for Australia, Europe, and North America, as well as a QR code for downloading free designing grids. This really is a complete resource for both city and country gardeners. Highly recommended!

Comprehensive and instructional! Solid start

Always thought about making raised beds, but never got to learn the proper way. How to deal with irrigation, soil, and planting essential information. It's essential to the starter like me, and I believe it is also to experienced people (my perspective). Information and knowledge are never enough.

Great for city apartment gardening!

Living in a small city apartment, I have limited space for gardening but have wanted to brighten up my space with plants. As a beginner, I found this to be an excellent audiobook for those interested in starting their own garden with limited experience. The guide offers clear and easy-to-follow instructions on how to create a thriving garden in any size space, including raised beds, containers, and vertical structures. I got so many ideas from this book and have already started gathering my materials. The author provides valuable insights into plant care, pest management, and soil-less gardening, making this a great resource for both beginners and experienced gardeners. I would highly recommend this book to gardeners of all levels.
