Kleine moestuin, grote opbrengst – Moesmeisje

A handful of fresh herbs for dinner, home-grown strawberries or the first beans of the season: harvesting from your own garden is a pleasure. And you do not need a large plot. In Kleine moestuin, grote opbrengst, Kim Nelissen, better known as Moesmeisje, shows just how much you can grow in a small patch of soil.

Kim grows more than fifty different crops in her organic vegetable garden of just 15 m². Her experience forms the basis of this practical book, packed with ideas for making good use of your space and harvesting throughout the year. It is useful both for first-time growers and for gardeners who want to get more from their existing plot.

Please note: this book is written in Dutch.
