    Holy Dibbler! Tools I never knew existed so I never knew I needed them. A fascinating book, fabulously illustrated and a great tool itself!—Jeff Lowenfels, North America's longest running columnist and author of the Teaming seriesIf you are serious about growing vegetables, this book will save you a huge amount of time. —Robert Pavlis, author of the Science for Gardeners book series and Garden Myths One of the challenges getting into gardening or farming is simply knowing what tools are actually out there and how to distinguish between so many that might look the same. Zach Loeks lays out the full range of tool options for all the different gardening operations you might undertake, and walks you through when you might want to use each of them. —Dan Brisebois, author, The Seed Farmer and host, the Seed Farmer podcast
