Home Gardening Articles by
Robert Wayne Atkins, P.E.



All of the articles on this page are included in my book: Grandpappy's Survival Manual for Hard Times, Third Edition.



The information on these pages could be useful to anyone interested in gardening. However, they were written with the average home gardener in mind. By home gardener I mean someone who plants and maintains a small garden each spring using a simple shovel, hoe, and rake. These are the basic hand tools I use each year and they have consistently served my needs in my small home garden quite well.
