Finally! A Non-Profit Foundation That

Provides Excellent Vegetable Gardening

Books, Materials and Training!

The profit motive is fine in its place. Our world would not run well without it, because most people care about themselves first and foremost. Most of us take that middle ground – a big step up from greed & avarice – but some distance below altruism.

History’s greatest lessons teach us that it’s better to give than to receive – that we should cast our bread upon the waters – and that there should be no poor among us. We are committed to following those higher principles.

The Food For Everyone Foundation is dedicated to “teaching the world to grow food one family at a time,” using the best family vegetable gardening methods and materials we can possible find or produce, and doing it in a way that everyone can gain access to them.

To that end we have created this and other websites; we’ve digitized what we believe are the world’s best vegetable gardening books; we’ve made them available as digital downloads and on CDs; and we’ve created an extensive library of digital training videos.

And everything is very affordable. We are even happy to provide them at even less cost to others who, like ourselves, are involved in humanitarian work.

Following is an introduction to the 9 gardening books and 9 subject-specific manuals authored by Dr. Jacob R. Mittleider and included digitally in the Gardening Library CD – the result of almost 60 years of Dr. Mittleider’s unique humanitarian experience in 27 countries around the world. Using even one of these books will give you “a great garden in any soil, in any climate”.

6 Steps to Successful Gardening is a simple book with excellent graphics that’s great for the beginner, for a smaller garden in the soil, or for getting your children excited about and involved in gardening.

It’s part of the Garden Library CD, as are all the others, and it’s also available in both paper from the Foundation, and electronically from Howtoorganicgarden.com.

The Mittleider Gardening Course is the result of a collaboration between several university professors and Dr. Mittleider to produce a simple but comprehensive gardening how-to “Lab Manual”. It includes all the basic gardening instruction for both soil-bed and container gardening, plus it covers more than a dozen important advanced gardening topics like greenhouse growing, seedling production, controlling bugs & diseases, and automating your watering.

The paper copy is available from the Foundation, and the electronic version is instantly-available for less than $14 at www.howtoorganicgarden.com.

Let’s Grow Tomatoes will also make you the local expert – this time on growing great quantities of delicious and healthy tomatoes.

The 3-volume Garden Doctor set will help you solve many gardening problems that often trouble home gardeners. You’ll discover that what you thought was an incurable disease is very often simply a nutrient deficiency. And the correction is even easier than the diagnosis.

With about 800 color pictures you’ll learn what the symptoms of deficiency look like on many different vegetables for all of the 13 mineral nutrients that plants need for healthy growth. And for every deficiency simple corrective treatments are given.

Because of the huge electronic file size these are only available as part of the Gardening Library CD or as a paper copy – both at the Foundation website.

Food For Everyone is a college-level agronomy text that covers much more than just family gardening. It’s used in several colleges around the world, and by the Foundation in our humanitarian outreach work.

It is the primary course material for an intensive three-month training course that has led to food security for hundreds of thousands of people, and even new careers for some – as commercial growers, greenhouse & hydroponic growers, teachers, and even radio, TV and newspaper columnists.

Such topics as plant types, parts of a plant and their functions, soils and soil testing, fertilizers and plant nutrition, insects and diseases, greenhouse growing, and many others are covered in detail in this large and comprehensive textbook.

Students who have graduated from other agriculture colleges have been quoted as saying “I learned more about growing food in three months than I learned in 5 years”.

Again, because of its size it’s only available as part of the Gardening Library CD or in paper. Go here.

The Mittleider Gardening Manuals range in size from 7-25 pages; they will educate you on important gardening subjects including:

• Deficiency Symptoms - Well organized way to understand what’s really wrong with your “sick” plants.
• Fertilizers Condensed - 25 pages summarizing important facts about all 13 essential plant nutrients.
• Fertilizer Management - Soil testing, the importance of and how to use lime and other fertilizers, the importance of drainage, crop rotation, and several other important topics every gardener should know.
• Greenhouses – Tells you how to fool Mother Nature by the use of greenhouses, greatly extending your growing season even through the winter.
• Growing Vegetables Without Fertilizers - Valuable instruction for survival situations when you cannot obtain any fertilizers, or a short-term need in a developing country.
• Manures – Teaches you to use manure wisely and properly, including the benefits and the hazards.
• Osmosis - The plant world depends entirely on osmosis for food and water, and yet most gardeners are ignorant of how this scientific principle works. These 9 pages will save you from many mistakes.
