Grow Your Own Pizza
Gardening Plans and Recipes for Kids

by Constance Hardesty
illustrated by Jeff McClung

 

The next time someone says they want a pizza, don’t order one, grow one! For gardeners and food connoisseurs of all ages, this fun yet practical resource will take you step-by-step through the process from dirt to dinner table.

Organized by Easy, Medium, and Advanced level garden plots, Grow Your Own Pizza enables the blossoming gardener and chef to progress to more advanced creations as their skills are refined.

The fundamentals of gardening are outlined with clarity and simplicity, from composting and mulching, planting and harvesting, to maintenance and tackling garden pests. Safety tips for the garden and kitchen are included, as well as a Green Thumb Guide and glossary. So grow wild!
