Hope there are some good books and music on board, like this one:
"The Beetless’ Gardening Book: An Organic Gardening Songbook/Guidebook, edited by Chris Roth. Softcover published 1997 by Carrotseed Press.
What’s not to love about a book of organic gardening songs set to Beatles tunes? Here are some samples:
To the tune of “Love Me Do”:
Bug, bug me do
You know I love you
You’ll pollinate too
So please – bug me do.
Or, to the tune of “A Hard Day’s Night”:
I’ve got a hard, clay soil
And I’ve been working like a dog
To add humus so that when it rains
I’ve got a garden, not a bog.
And to the tune of “I Want to Hold Your Hand”:
Well I’ll tell you something
I hope you’ll understand
I don’t want no rototiller
I want to dig by hand
I want to dig by hand
I want to dig by hand.
Well tractors make me queasy
Their noise I cannot stand
Their fumes, they sure are stinky
I want to dig by hand.
Not singing along as you scan the tunes in this songbook/guidebook is the only challenge that you will be taking on in reading The Beetless’ Gardening Book. The lyrics in every song are amusing, educational and dripping with compost, while the music is compliments of John, Paul, George and Ringo. Various gardening tasks are explained to the tunes of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (Loosely Firm the Edges of Seedflats), Maxwell’s Silver Hammer (Maxwell’s Plastic Bucket) or you can dance in your garden singing out Mulch! to the music of Help! If you know any Beatles songs, you can probably find an organic cover of it in this guidebook. — Michelle Urso, Healing Currents Journal, 1997."
