About This Book

Fastest way to get it: buy The Florida Perennial Garden on Amazon. Brand new paperback or Kindle, at your door quick.

Want the personal touch? That is this listing. Same brand new book, signed by hand by me, then packed and shipped by our family. It takes us a little longer than Amazon, and that is the trade.

Brand new, latest edition. Every copy ships new and unread, printed fresh. Never used, never secondhand.

Annual gardens make you start over every season. A perennial food forest works different: you plant it once and it feeds you for years, through the heat, the floods, and the surprise February freeze. The Florida Perennial Garden is my guide to building exactly that, with the plants that have earned their place on our quarter acre in West Central Florida.

What you get in this edition

  • Packed and shipped by our family, not a warehouse
  • The perennial-first system behind the food forest that feeds our family of six

Questions, Answered

Is this a new book or a used copy?

Brand new, every time. This is the current edition, printed fresh and signed by hand before it ships. We do not sell used, secondhand, refurbished, or remainder copies. Ever.

I have never grown anything. Is this book for me?

Yes. It is written in plain talk for beginners. No jargon, no botany degree required. It gives you the why, the mindset, and the simple first steps to get food in the ground.

I do not live in Florida. Will it still help?

The book was written from a Florida yard, and it speaks loudest to the South and warm climates. But the message, turning lawn into food and building the discipline to keep it growing, works anywhere grass grows.

Do you offer personal help with my yard?

Yes. The Backyard Coaching Program with Jermaine and Toni is $9,700 and application only. It includes a video review of your yard, a written game plan, and sixteen weeks of direct access. Learn about coaching here. The book is the best first step.

What is the difference between the signed copy and Amazon?

Same book, same current edition, both brand new. The signed copy is signed by Jermaine and shipped from our home in Florida. Amazon ships faster and has the Kindle version instantly. Pick what suits you, just start.

How fast does it ship?

Signed copies are packed and shipped from our family in West Central Florida. See our shipping policy for current times, and our refund policy if anything is not right.
