Description
The special thing about this book is that the author is still relatively young and only recently launched his business, Gemüseinsel (Vegetable Island) – a community-supported agriculture project in Germany – along with a friend and the help of a crowd-funding campaign. He describes the path he took, how he approached the project, the mistakes he made and how best to go about things if you too want to start your own market-gardening company.
The book provides a good overview of the subject of market gardening: theory, the author’s own experiences, introductions to trailblazers and pioneers – it’s all here in this informative and illuminating guide.

Author Biography
Leon Schleep wasn’t born into farming – instead, travelling abroad and Wwoof-ing (voluntary work as a harvest hand) awakened his passion for gardening. After studying for a degree in Ecological Agronomics, he had the idea of founding his own market-gardening business. Gardening gives him the opportunity to contribute actively to environmental protection and slow the pace of climate change – two for the price of one, as it were.
