Description
The instant Sunday Times bestseller from internet sensation @marfskitchengarden with 40 simple projects to grow your own veg, fruit or flowers no matter how much space you have.
‘A true joy to read’ - Yotam Ottolenghi
In this beautiful and practical guide, Martha Swales makes it easier than ever before to start growing your own slice of nature with her collection of fool-proof projects.
You don’t need expensive tools or equipment, Martha’s approach is all about getting outside, trying something new and watching the magic of nature take its course. With chapters on veg, fruit, herbs, flowers and wildlife, there are over 40 of Martha’s favourite projects to make the most of your garden, patio or balcony (plus bonus recipes for how to cook with your produce!) including:
- Grow garlic greens on your windowsill (and use them to make tasty garlic flatbreads)
- Create a tower of tumbling strawberries
- Build a pond to bring wildlife to your garden
- Make a bulb lasagne for a changing display of flowers throughout spring
Complete with beautiful illustrations, this is the perfect book for anyone who wants to get more out of their outside space, to enjoy the taste of their own produce, or to simply feel more connected to nature – why don’t you give it a grow?
‘Everything this book is celebrating just makes life better - for you and the world around you’ - Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

Media Reviews
A truly inspiring book * Nigella Lawson *
Martha invites us to think of gardening the way we do cooking-imperfectly, joyfully, and learning as we go. I've never felt so compelled to get into my garden. It was a true joy to read * Yotam Ottolenghi *
You don't have to be naturally green fingered to love this book. It's friendly, easy to read and even easier to understand. But most of all it will make you want to get into the garden * Nadiya Hussain *
Martha's love and knowledge of food stems from her passion for gardening. From delicate edible flowers to robust hearty root vegetables, this book will guide and inspire you to grow your own and have some fun on the way * Michel Roux *
If there was ever a book to inspire people to grow their own food, this is it. Martha's 'just crack on' approach, and the charming story of her own love affair with her veg plot, is by turns empowering, cajoling and irresistibly enticing. In the end you just can't say no. And why would you? Everything this book is celebrating just makes life better - for you and the world around you * Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall *
How to grow it, how to eat it - this is my kind of book! * Jasmine Hemsley *
I especially love where Martha describes how we can all be gardeners without having gardens. Her approach to gardening is fun, natural and very heartfelt in this book. But I must say: Martha's enthusiasm towards gardening and connectivity to nature is a bug (pardon the pun) she picked up from her mother, that is evident in every page of this book * Rekha Mistry, Head Gardener, Presenter, Author *
Martha has been inspiring me for years with her clever, creative and super practical ideas and now she's gathered them into one beautiful and practical guide. I'm such a fan boy, it's kinda embarrassing * James Wong *
Martha Swales has a warm, lighthearted tone combined with an accessibility that will encourage almost anyone to 'give it a grow' * The English Garden *
