Description

The perfect season-led book to help you grow the best organic vegetables, fruit and herbs in a small urban space

Many of us are trying to be more mindful in our approach to eating by choosing seasonal ingredients, and growing our own fruit and vegetables can benefit our health, the environment, and even our wallet.

Written over a year, City Veg is the candid account of an urban grower from her productive city plot – the size of two classic 1970s VW camper vans – with all the triumphs and minor woes that come with a small, suburban location. From planning and designing the garden in January to harvesting and using home-grown produce throughout the growing season, Cinead McTernan takes you on a personal journey that will entertain experienced growers and share plenty of practical information with newbie gardeners.

With helpful growing advice, harvesting guides, tips, and inspiration for garden projects, City Veg also includes quick and easy recipe ideas to help make the most of your bountiful yield.
