About the Author

Jo Ann Gardner has been growing, preserving, and baking with small fruit for over forty years. She and her husband operated a small hand-/horse-powered farm on a remote peninsula on Cape Breton Island, Canada, which inspired books, articles, and lectures beginning in 1987. Together they wrote Gardens of Use and Delight, describing how they transformed a bare farm into a lush landscape using simple methods. Jo Ann and Jigs now live in Westport, New York, in the Champlain Valley where they have established a small farm with extensive gardens.
