Vegetables

Now is the perfect time to start preparations for this year’s vegetable crops.

Herbs

In recent years, many of us turned to the garden whether that’s growing plants in pots, planters or baskets or starting a herb garden. 

From tasty basil to fragrant mint, growing your own herbs can be very rewarding. Plus they are great to add to your recipes.

Fruit

You can grow many different fruits in your garden at home, even if you have limited space.

But before you start dreaming of the delicious gooseberry pie you’ll make from your harvest, consider which fruits will grow best in your garden.

Strawberries

If you only grow one fruit this year, let it be Strawberries.

Firstly they are delicious! Secondly, you can get a fantastic crop output using minimal space, so well worth a try this year!
