If you have ever asked yourself questions like these, Month-by-Month Gardening in Michigan is for you. Gardening is a journey, not a destination. The day-by-day gardening experiences--planting a few onion sets in the first warm afternoon of spring...the surprises--a purple crocus before the snow has even gone...the satisfaction--fresh green beans on the dinner table, or tomatoes, bright and red, safely in quart jars...these are the things that keep the gardener coming back year after year.
