Description
My First Garden by Livi Gosling is a beautifully illustrated children's guide to growing plants, from vegetables to wildflowers.
This is the perfect gardening book for kids who want to plant fruit and vegetables, create mini farms from plants, and go on wildflower missions.
No matter how tiny your space, you can be a gardener. Livi Gosling offers advice on creating places for plants to live in your home, scavenging from the recycling to create a vegetable kingdom, and adding a splash of colour to grey city streets with your own wildflower seed mix.
With clear step-by-step instructions on how to get seeds, plant them, and help them grow, and plenty of inspiration and helpful tips, this book will help you get started with your very first gardening projects.

About the Author
Livi studied illustration in Cornwall before returning to her hometown in Hertfordshire. Livi draws inspiration from travel, nature and food. When she isn't illustrating, you'll find her walking in the countryside, cooking or tending to her veg patch. After getting an allotment in 2019, she discovered a love of gardening that intensified during lockdown 2020. Her allotment was a safe haven throughout scary, uncertain times and Livi is very grateful for it. Livi has since moved on to building a kitchen garden in her new home and is passionate about gardening for wellbeing.
