This story of sunshine, weather patterns, old limitations and expectations, and new realities is delightfully innovative in the best gardening tradition. The New Organic Growers Four-Season Harvest: How to Harvest Fresh Organic Vegetables from Your Home Garden All Year Long Eliot Coleman. Coleman expands upon his own experiences with new ideas learned on a winter-vegetable pilgrimage across the ocean to the acknowledged kingdom of vegetable cuisine, the southern part of France, which lies on the 44th parallel, the same latitude as his farm in Maine. Remember to seek out positive support systems, keep your friends in your life, and take good care of yourself. Remember that tough moments don’t define you: You are more than your circumstances. He shows how North American gardeners can successfully use that sun to raise a wide variety of traditional winter vegetables in backyard cold frames and plastic covered tunnel greenhouses without supplementary heat. Remind yourself of the parts of your journey that have pushed you to overcome difficulties in the past. Eliot Coleman introduces the surprising fact that most of the United States has more winter sunshine than the south of France.
