The }Gardener's World{ presenter Alys Fowler takes up the challenge to live veg-supermarket-free for 6 months. The book, and the 6-part BBC2 series it accompanies, shows how she grows her produce in her small suburban back garden, without an allotment or sacrificing the beauty of her precious outdoor space. From sewing seeds to harvesting, storing, preserving and pickling, plus some hearty recipes, this is a thrifty self-sufficiency guide for modern times.
