I just finished reading the book, and loved every minute of it. This is my first year growing flax and it was great to find an affordable resource with such a great sense of humor and excellent information. It also arrived in much better time than I expected, considering I’m located in mid-Michigan and the book shipped from Canada. I look forward to using this book for years to come (especially with the flax diary at the end, which I’d forgotten about until I’d finished reading). 10/10

If you want to grow flax. DO GET THIS BOOK FIRST! It will answer any and all questions about this wonderful plant and dispel a few myths in the process. I am growing flax for a second year and it has helped me greatly already! Just wish I had had this book before I began! bjr
