Everything is explained in clear, photographed steps: building your bed, growing from seed, planting, feeding, and harvesting. Huw shows how to guarantee early success by starting off young plants on a windowsill.

In this book, he organizes all of his ideas and suggestions into a blueprint for growing your own vegetables month by month. Very little growing experience? Only a small space? No matter--with Veg in One Bed, you can still eat food you have grown throughout the year.

Know which crops to start off from seed (even on a windowsill) or which to plant direct, and then look after your seedlings as they grow until they're ready to harvest. Maintenance checklists throughout the year prompt you to keep on top of small tasks such as watering and watching out for signs of pests and diseases. Once you've had a successful first year, Huw suggests next steps including a wider variety of veg, herbs and flowers to grow, attracting pollinators and looking after your crops using organic homemade feeds. Follow Huw's simple, structured plan and enjoy homegrown vegetables and herbs with Veg in One Bed.
