The book takes you through the growing year month by month to know when to sow, plant and harvest the main vegetables, whether in an allotment or plot or in pots, containers and raised beds. It explains how to choose the right vegetables for your soil, make compost and organic fertilisers, control pests and extend the season with cloches and cold frames.

Ideal for home gardeners and enthusiasts who want to grow their own vegetables naturally, even with limited space such as a balcony or patio.
