What They're Saying

Critics Review

An inspiring new book … lays out a successional growing programme, month-by-month, vegetable-by-vegetable which will almost double the productivity of the plot and really keep you in vegetables all year round. - Caroline Foley, Guardian

Of the many new books on growing your own food, this is the one I’ve been waiting for. - Michael Viney

What makes it unusual, if not unique, is that it’s firmly based on hands-on experience gained in one of the more difficult parts of the country for growing things … although it’s aimed at beginners I learned a lot from it, and I’m hardly a beginner at this stage. - Dick Warner, Irish Examiner

An accessible and essential guide to growing undercover, it offers fluff-free growing instructions and a monthly planner for everyday and unusual crops year round. - Vegetarian Living
