Mel Bartholomew's revolutionary gardening method, Square Foot Gardening, is the world's most popular alternative gardening approach.

Now, the system has been further refined and improved based on the input and experience of these millions, fully meeting today's changing resources, needs, and challenges.

Don't wait another season to try Mel's brilliant approach to gardening! We're sure it will work for you, and you won't look back. Whether you grow in a Square Foot Garden, a straw bale garden, containers, or a traditional garden plot, you can approach harvest time with confidence.

The books in the series include "All New Square Foot Gardening," "All New Square Foot Gardening, 3rd Edition," "All New Square Foot Gardening Cookbook," "Square Foot Gardening Answer Book," "Square Foot Gardening with Kids," "Square Foot Gardening: Harvest Time Cookbook," "Square Foot Gardening High-Value Veggies," and "Square Foot Gardening: Growing Perfect Vegetables."

The Square Foot Gardening Foundation, founded by Mel Bartholomew, aims to "end world hunger" by spreading the message of growing more food in less space with less waste. As the Foundation enters its third decade, it continues to work towards this mission at home and abroad.

The Foundation's projects focus on introducing gardening basics, science and math concepts, water conservation, self-sufficiency, and healthy eating to kids. For most children, building their own SFG box is an exciting moment where they learn about independence and achievement. Pinching seeds is a drill to help kids practice handling seeds before they get into the garden for real.

The ultimate reward for the kids is harvest time, where their hard work pays off as they pick the very first tomato they've ever grown. The joy on their faces is what makes harvesting the Square Foot Garden a favorite time for everyone involved.
