How to create a new Vegetable Garden: Producing a beautiful and fruitful garden from scratch

---

As the veg specialist on Which? Gardening, when off ering advice to readers,
I found that the hardest question to answer was “I want to grow vegetables;
how do I start?” I’ve started three allotments myself over the years, and
watched many novices start out enthusiastically but fail to make a go of it.
This book would surely have made a diff erence. How many of us set out
with good intentions and a head full of what we want to grow, while ignoring
the key to success – getting the soil right?

Charles has had years of experience growing his own veg (not forgetting
fruit and ornamentals), and his advice is founded on his experimental
approach to growing, which is the real strength of his latest book. It doesn’t
just provide advice on starting your own veg plot but also documents in
detail the fi rst year in his own new garden. If there are alternative techniques
for clearing land and building fertility, you can be sure Charles has tried
them – as you would expect of a teacher and experimenter. Rather than
the ‘trust me, I am an expert’ approach, this book modestly lays out the
evidence for the merits of each technique, so readers can see for themselves
and decide which methods suit them best.

The second part of the book gives details of all the vegetables, arranged
by season, that you might wish to grow; written in an honest and informative
style by someone who really has grown them all, over many years. Not
only that, but it off ers advice on how to optimize the harvest from a smaller
space over a season.
