Introduction by Darina Allen.

A manual of gardening to inform and inspire you, packed with illustrations.

Charles gives advice on how to grow great crops. Use it year after year – it is an ‘any year’ diary.

This is the newest edition (September 2019). The content is broadly the same but has been updated and revised, with new photos added.

Advice in the diary section is linked to each week of the season. It includes information on:

• how to sow seed at the best moment – seeds neither fail in cold nor start too late
• sowing and planting methods, plus raising plants at home
• the advantages of no dig, for less time needed
• how to maintain control of weeds, through timely mulching and hoeing
• how to feed soil, for strong and healthy growth, more easily
• when and how to make all the harvests, with advice on storing produce

This is a garden companion of seasonal prompts, in the context of precise information about how to grow great vegetables.

Self-published by the author’s imprint No Dig Garden – 168 pages illustrated with photographs, mostly of the garden at Homeacres.
