Grow a bumper crop of crunchy cabbages, crispy cauliflower, sweet baby brustels sprouts and mouth-watering Kale without using chemical fertilizers or poisonous pesticides - the "Origiganic" way! It has been only since the 1960s that dangerous petroleum-based fertilizers and pesticides have been in widespread use, so any serious gardening "how to" treatise published prior to 1960 will, quite "naturally," exclude their use. "Origiganic" is a new word we have coined here at Better Days Books to describe these time-tested, chemical-free "original" methods of growing food in our backyards, gardens and even on full scale farms. With The Better Days Books Origiganic Guide to Growing Cabbages and Cauliflowers (Original publication date: 1889) you'll be well on your way to producing a better, healthier, safer, and even generally less expensive bounty of fabulous, poison-free food - for your family and for the marketplace.
