Backyard Gardening Origins
Backyard Gardening In The Bahamas & The Caribbean is the author’s valuable insights and wisdom from her many years of personal experience as a backyard gardener in the Bahamas. It was out of her love for writing and gardening that this how to book was birthed. Cynthia was once featured in the Nassau Guardian for growing unusually large vegetables. She also enjoys canning and often has vegetables preserved for years. Her goal is to motivate the average Bahamian to do their part in helping the economy by growing their own vegetables in whatever space available in their backyard.
