How to Establish a "One-Serve-at-a-Time" Habit That You Can Maintain and Then Build on When You're Ready
Big, bountiful veggie gardens look great on the covers of Home and Garden magazines, but they're totally unrealistic and unsustainable for anyone who doesn’t have gardening as the center-piece of their life.
And anything you can't sustain—no matter how much it might impress your friends and neighbors—is ultimately just a drain on your time, resources, energy, and morale.
The "small and simple, little and often" approach in One Small Serve makes it easier and much more realistic to achieve one serve at a time of nutritious, homegrown food, consistently.

"Everything you need to know about some unusual, healthy and easy to grow vegetables that you won't have to replant."

what people say
Beautifully presented and written. Your clear instructions for growing and using these plants has inspired me to give them a go, and to overcome my past reluctance to try eating new things.
I appreciate the links – I felt like it gave me a choice to how much information I want.
Your dandelion and chickweed descriptions are spot on, people couldn’t get it wrong if they read that. Your explanation about the scientific names of plants was also clear and helpful, especially for readers who might be intimidated or put off by scientific names.
I’m amazed about celery, I had no idea it could live for years!
I'm interested in the tropical spinaches too. Honestly in the past the glueyness of malabar spinach has put me off tropical spinaches and that was unfair because I think the others have different tastes and textures; you've encouraged me to give them a go.
I really enjoyed your book and all the new ideas it opened up for me. Thank you very much!

Reader reviews
“
“ I enjoyed reading One Small Serve and learning from Kate about growing the plants she selected for this book. Her choice of plants hones in on their high nutrition, ease of growing, and continuous harvesting, which makes the information in the book valuable for both the novice and experienced gardener. Kate gives information on the plant’s history, identification, how to propagate, grow, harvest, and how we can use them in our daily lives either by eating them straight out of the garden, or cooking them with the methods that she provides in the book. Kate takes a job that can seem overwhelming and sets us up for success by encouraging us to start with small steps, and in doing so helps us to build confidence and momentum. I found the book to be very encouraging and Kate inspires us to grow even a small amount of our own food to feed our families."

"As a fellow food grower, I really enjoyed reading Kate’s book One Small Serve. It has a wide range of information and gave me what I needed to have a go at growing the 7 plants she selected for the book. I look forward to reading Kate’s future books like this one, covering other food plants to grow for our families."

"I wholeheartedly recommend 'One Small Serve' to anyone seeking to start or expand their home-grown food journey. Kate presents easily absorbed chunks of content in an accessible and engaging way. I gained confidence that I too can grow fresh, nutritious foods that nourish my family, helps reduce my consumption of plastic packaging and saves me money. "
