Most vegetables that are commonly grown in our gardens are not at all local. They initially travelled a very long way! This book proposes the reader to welcome new ones into the garden, especially since global warming will most certainly permit us to eventually grow varieties from warmer regions. Some vegetables in the book have been cultivated for a long time in our climates, but are still little known today. This book provides an opportunity to (re)discover these unsung vegetables, to increase biodiversity in the vegetable garden, and last but not least, to (re)discover new flavours at dinnertime!
