We have started a new site dedicated to Easy Edibles and have therefore moved the blog posts about vegetable gardening to easyedibles.com.
Here we give news of the doings of Alice Greene & Co., its authors and others associated in the development and marketing of our books.
On her way to giving talks tomorrow (Tuesday, 7/19) in Fennville and Kalamazoo, Easy Edibles author Sheri Repucci will be appearing between 5 and 6pm today on “The One Seven” on Fox 17 (WXMI). If you live in the Grand Rapids area, be sure to watch!
Easy Edibles author Sheri Repucci started a new growing season last week with talks at three libraries in Michigan and Ohio. Sheri spoke about her background in gardening, her early start, the joys and challenges of different vegetables, including the importance of good soil and how to test and establish it. Each talk was very well received, and at each event almost half the attendees bought a signed copy of the book, with Alice Greene & Co. making a donation to a local organization of the library’s choosing.
Easy Edibles author Sheri Repucci will be at the “Writers on the River” event in Monroe County this weekend. I won’t be able to make it, but I hope that you will be able to join Sheri and 29 other authors at this year’s event, selling and signing their books in time for the holidays! More details here.
We had the opportunity to visit a few Barnes and Noble stores recently and discovered they were filing Easy Edibles under “Local” (well, “Michigan” here in Michigan). We checked with the buyer and she is going to arrange for it to be shelved with the other gardening books. So if you have had trouble finding the book, now you now why.
Easy Edibles is now available from Barnes and Noble online and should be available from your local store any day now.
Just a reminder that Sheri will be signing copies of Easy Edibles during the plant sale Sunday out at Matthaei Botanical Garden. See the events page for details. If you go, post your photos at the Easy Edibles Facebook page.
This is a great time to visit the Dow Gardens in Midland, MI, while the butterflies are in “full bloom”. And Sheri will be there Saturday to sign copies of her book, Easy Edibles.
Then the following Tuesday (April 13th) the Midland County Master Gardener Association have invited Sheri to give a talk at Whiting Forest.
I hope you can make one of these events if you are in the area. You can see more details on the Events page.
I almost forgot to say – the new website went live today. I hope you like it and the new events and news areas prove useful. Let us know what you think…
We’re happy to say that the enthusiasm for Easy Edibles has prompted us to do another, larger print run in time for spring gardening – thank you, everyone, for your support.
