You thought you were being so clever when you missed school on the day your class picked out vegetables for a giant two-week science project. But your plan backfires completely when you return to discover you have been assigned the one vegetable nobody else wanted: the weird, purple, and totally dirty rutabaga. You are definitely not a vegetable fan, and you certainly never planned on babysitting one. But after you draw a little face on its bumpy skin, you start to realize this odd little plant is actually kind of cool. There is just one massive problem: vegetables rot. If you want to keep your new rutabaga buddy happy, healthy, and entirely rot-free, you are going to have to engineer the absolute best dirt in the world. Get ready to roll up your sleeves, dig into nature, and call in some favors from your backyard chickens to save the day.
