10 reasons to buy the Black Thumb Garden Club Workbook

1. We've got all the basics covered. If you've never gardened before (successfully), you'll need to learn about gardening. This Workbook is full of tried and true methods and all the background information essential for you to succeed. This book covers planning a garden, planting, maintenance, bugs, harvesting, preserving, and even a chapter on planting trees, berries, shrubs, flower bulbs and landscaping!




2. Beyond gardening. You won't find a gardening book organized quite like this one. We go over composting, canning, heirloom seeds, and more. We truly take you through the entire season in order, everything involved with growing a veggie garden, and more.




3. All chapters lead you to ACTION. This workbook is meant to last you all season, with assignments for each chapter. Each chapter covers everything you'll need to know at that particular time of the season.




4. It's not just a book. We are a CLUB. Join our closed Facebook group where you can interact and ask questions. This Workbook will also help you set up your own club at home or in your community.




5. Everything on the website supports the book and you. The BTGC Workbook is limited to being, well a book, but the website has corresponding written posts with more photos, worksheet downloads, and helpful videos.




6. We listened, a lot. This book was written after talking with many people who NEVER gardened before. People with zero experience. We specifically address every concern we've ever heard and every question we've been asked. Anyone can pick up this book and grow a garden.




7. The BTGC Workbook is for families and communities. We envision a family with older kids working through the book as a functioning club of their own. We see friends getting together to support each other. We see people growing community gardens and sharing their new skills to make a positive difference. We are so excited to provide something that can bring families and communities closer together.




8. We know what it's like to move to a new place and not know anyone. So we love being able to provide the online community and support, especially for those that have a hard time finding people to connect with in their area.




9. Buying a workbook helps us keep helping you! The website posts and videos will only grow with your continued feedback and support. We love helping you grow!




10. All of this for the price of a book. It's a no-brainer.
