Description

Create your own farm in your garden with tips on growing, harvesting and eating your own produceNicki Trench has created her own garden farm from scratch, and now shares with you everything there is to know about growing vegetables, fruit and herbs, including making your own compost, growing in raised beds and protecting your crops from pests and disease.

Nicki also explains how to rear chickens for eggs and bees for honey, and gives advice on keeping goats and pigs.

The benefits of creating your garden farm are not just economic - the energy once obsessively expended on the exercise bike can now be channelled more productively by digging the vegetable patch, turning the compost or cleaning out the hen coop.

Communities are reappearing over garden fences as neighbours share their harvest of courgette, spinach and eggs.

Whatever you choose to grow or rear on your garden farm, this book offers a taste of the good life that is easy, satisfying and inexpensive to achieve.
