Did you know?
...you can get a whole year of food from tiny gardens. WOW!

Foxgloves & lavender feed bees all summer long - 1 plant in every garden will save our bees!
1 each of spinach, rocket, chives & chard give you fresh salads for 10 months of the year!
3 raspberry canes & 1 red/blackcurrant bush will give you ripe berries 7 months of the year!
1 bean plant will give you beans all year round (fresh to eat & dried for winter soups) !
Sewing carrot, beetroot & radish seeds every month gives fresh crops 9 months of the year!
1 rhubarb plant will give you delicious crumbles 9 months of the year!
Herbs are full of flavour & scent, easy to grow from garden to plate 10 months of the year!
Garlic stops slugs!! and each re-planted clove produces five times more next year!
Winter root veg like parsnips, potatoes, swede and turnips will happily grow quietly around your other plants and transform the winter garden green and leafy!
Dwarf fruit trees are brilliant - easy to prune & pick, and don't cast shade on neighbours!
 
     All these plants & many more are incredibly easy
to grow in small gardens, courtyards, balconies & pots

     All fruit & veg can be frozen, pickled & preserved
to last the whole winter too

...imagine saving on supermarket bills
...and discovering what real ripe fruit & veg taste like


Many plants produce their own seeds, so you won't have to buy year after year. You'll have plenty to share with neighbours, family & friends!
