Description

The joy of growing your own produce! In this episode I talk about my personal journey with allotment gardening and the joy it has brought to all the family. You don’t need rows of beds, raised veg boxes and a full blown allotment to enjoy doing this either.  I share ideas on how to involve the children in the process, and the satisfaction that comes from harvesting homegrown produce. Plus practical tips of what to grow even in a small window box and what to make with your crop!  As always I love to hear from you so please do share any tips, photos or memories of growing your own in the facebook group or drop me an email.
