Author of Container Gardening for Health, Barbara Barker, equips readers with easy methods to grow the "Dirty Dozen," the top twelve fruits and vegetables with the highest pesticide residues.

    LIVE OAK, FL, April 16, 2009 /Nutrition PR News/ -- A new book by Barbara Barker equips container gardeners with organic methods to grow the twelve most important fruits and vegetables for their family's health.

Strawberries, Cherries, Lettuce, Grapes (imported), Pears, Spinach, and Potatoes.

Container Gardening for Health describes how to grow the "dirty dozen" in containers with organic methods. Gardeners can make a big difference in their family's pesticide exposure by growing a few of their favorites from the list.
