Over the last year, many of us have found the time to take up new hobbies and to invest in our health and wellbeing.
And what could be better for us than eating fresh fruit and vegetables, especially if they’re fruit and veg we’ve actually grown ourselves.
Many of us dream of being able to plant and harvest our own produce but as beginners it’s easy to be put off, worrying that we’ll get it wrong. Not to mention the fact that in urban areas most of us live in flats with little or no outside space.
But, it IS possible to cultivate all sorts of veg, even if you don’t have a garden.
In a new initiative to celebrate its 30th anniversary, Linda McCartney’s is making growing your own fruit and vegetables accessible to everyone – whether you’ve got a window box, a garden or a balcony.
And to encourage us all to get growing, the pioneering meat-free brand has created the ‘Grow Your Own Guide’ in collaboration with TV gardener Diarmuid Gavin. It aims to arm even the total novices amongst us with the knowledge to start cultivating a range of veg from home.
