never been greater. As people grow ever more
suspicious of the chemicals used in food production,

extensive gardening experience to explain exactly why
and how to garden organically.

and devise a planting plan, and offers ideas
for flexible contemporary variations on the
traditional kitchen garden.

gardening, from soil preparation and
planning to sowing and harvesting-
