From reviews:
"Leaf crops produce the most nutrition from the least space while requiring the fewest inputs.
The trouble is...many valuable leafy vegetables are unknown to gardeners. Nor do we know
how to prepare or preserve them. Dave Kennedy’s Eat Your Greens provides all this information. The book should be on the shelf of every serious gardener."
— Steve Solomon, Author The Intelligent Gardener and Gardening When It Counts
"David Kennedy makes a compelling case for home gardens as a vital element of our food
system and for expanding our food and garden horizons by growing super-nutritious greens,
including some novel leaf crops and traditional crops used in new ways. A great resource
for those wishing to increase their food security, Eat Your Greens offers detailed information
on growing, eating, and preserving greens that both novice and experienced gardeners will
welcome."
