    “Timing is everything,” they say, and vegetable gardening is no exception. Knowing exactly when to start seeds indoors, what day to transplant them into the ground, when to pinch off the blossoms, and when to pick for peak flavor is the secret to enjoying bountiful harvests all through the gardening season. In Week-by-Week Vegetable Gardener’s Handbook, authors Ron and Jennifer Kujawski take the guesswork out of gardening with weekly to-do lists that break gardening down into easily manageable tasks. Suitable for all gardening zones, the book offers easy instructions for setting up a personalized schedule based on your last frost date. The Kujawskis are an inspiring father–daughter team who share their own triumphs, mistakes, and misadventures over many years spent together in the vegetable patch. Readers will enjoy the friendly direction and advice these veterans offer. Easy-to-read boxes, bulleted lists, charts, and detailed how-to illustrations make each week’s activities clear and doable. Spots for record-keeping encourage readers to track their own successes and fine-tune their weekly schedules from year to year. Inch by inch, row by row, week by week, gardeners will move confidently through the gardening season. Whether it’s planting the strawberries, pinching off the pumpkin blossoms, checking for tomato hornworm, or harvesting the carrots, they will know exactly when and how to do it for the most bountiful harvests and the most enjoyable vegetable-growing experiences ever. The Authors: Ron and Jennifer Kujawski are a father-daughter gardening team. Together, they tend a 2,000-square-foot vegetable garden in the Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts. Ron is a horticultural consultant, writer, and lecturer who served as an Extension educator for the University of Massachusetts for 25 years. He’s also the author of a popular syndicated gardening column called “The Gardener’s Checklist.” Jennifer holds degrees in botany and horticulture and works as a freelance writer and editor for a variety of organizations, including the University of Massachusetts Extension, the USDA Forest Service, and the Massachusetts Nursery and Landscape association. Available December 2010 ISBN: 978-1-60342-694-7
