Read the book review here.


Zach will be hanging out in the Market Garden forums this week (Feb 20 - Feb 24. 2017), answering questions and promoting his gorgeous new book.

If you have been thinking of starting up a market garden, or could use some pointers on how to make your current garden more efficient and profitable, now is the time to get some first hand information from a man who is deeply involved in the process.

At the end of the week, we'll make a draw for 3 lucky winners to win a copy of his book! From now until Friday, all new threads started in the market garden forum are eligible to win.

To win, you must use a name that follows our naming policy and you must have your email set up to receive  Paul's Daily-ish email.

The winner will be notified by email and must respond within 24 hours.

Please do not put Zach's name in the title of your thread. We like these threads to be accessible to everyone, and some people may not post their experiences if the thread is directed to Zach alone.

Posts in this thread won't count as an entry to win the book, but please feel free to say, "Hi!" to Zach and make him feel welcome!

Hi Zach, thanks for coming and chatting with us.  Looks like a great book.

Welcome Zach reading your book right now. Great to see finally a path traced for farmers that permaculture can be applied even to profitable work. I hope it will help move from the idea that many farmers have that permaculture is a sort of banned word and concept.

Welcome Zach.

Hey Zach! Welcome to Permies . I'm really looking forward to reading your book and to reading what you have to say in the forums.



p.s. moderators, your post says to welcome Ian... again .

Welcome to permies. Can't wait to read your book. Juli

I never visited the Market Garden part of the forum. I'm not good at selling products. But I think in my garden (or whatever garden I work in, f.e. the community garden) the same principles, methods, techniques can be very well applied. So I'll make a new thread here

Can't wait to read your book - have been eager to figure out how to make market garden more permie and make permie more market garden.

Welcome Zach!  and thanks for sharing and participating in this forum. I am so excited to check out your new book.

Welcome Aboard Zach!! Looking forward to reading your book and incorporating some of your ideas into my retirement Market Garden.....

Congratulations to our book winners!
