What can be more convenient than being able to nip into the garden
to pick some salad for lunch, some herbs for the pot or some fresh
veg or fruit for dinner? Nothing beats the flavour of home-grown
produce, or, in these days of additives and preservatives, the
reassurance of knowing what is in your food. Contrary to popular
belief, you don't need an enormous garden, or a dedicated spot
within it to grow your own, nor do you need to join the mammoth
waiting lists for a local allotment; all you need is a window
ledge, some steps, a patio, some wall space or even some gaps in
your flower borders. In this handy book the team at Gardeners'
World Magazine will give you loads of tips on how to get started if
you've never grown fruit or vegetables before, suggest some fun and
practical ways you can grow your favourite crops in a limited space
or small garden, and tell you how to get the best from what you
grow. Growing your own has never been more popular or more simple,
and in this essential little guide, packed with inspirational ideas
and advice from Gardeners' World Magazine, everyone can get in on
the act. So what's stopping you now? Go on, grow your own grub!
