Exploring the Diversity of our Human Existence in the Global Garden

All over this earth, our global garden, people are cultivating a great diversity of vegetables and fruits. There are over 15,000 edible plants that can help to sustain our global village, yet over 99% of the American diet is based on less than 100 plants. We have a world of unique, unusual and exotic vegetables to discover, enjoy and share at the dinner table of our global village. Some of these might even become a part of your garden and add diversity to your own mealtime adventure. This book is a safari into the exotic gardens of the world.
