A year-round plan for a productive home garden

Built around a 10 × 12.5-metre plot, Huw Richards and Sam Cooper’s guide connects garden planning with the practical work of turning harvests into meals. It lays out month-by-month planting and seasonal tasks, alongside instructions for creating growing spaces such as hot beds and polytunnels. Kitchen guidance on meal preparation, storage and preserving extends the plan beyond cultivation, with base recipes to help make use of crops. Cost, available space and time are all part of the framework, making self-sufficiency here a structured gardening project rather than simply a list of vegetables to grow.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Home gardeners who want a month-by-month planting framework
  • Households interested in growing food with attention to budget, space and time
  • Gardeners seeking ideas for storing and using their harvests
