The Vegetable Gardener's Book of Building Projects, from the editors of Storey Publishing, is a 152-page paperback with 39 projects that make a vegetable garden more productive and easier to work.

There are cold frames, compost bins, raised beds, potting benches, trellises and more. None needs special tools or woodworking experience, and most take only a few hours.

John and Martha Storey started Storey in 1983, when they bought the book publishing arm of Garden Way, the company known for its rototillers and garden carts, and set up in Pownal, Vermont. Storey moved to North Adams, Massachusetts, in 1999 and has been part of Workman Publishing since 2000. Its aim is practical information that encourages personal independence in harmony with the environment.
