Irrespective of whether you are a meat eater, a vegetarian or vegan and for whatever reasons; we are all encouraged to eat a healthy and balanced diet. Growing your own fruit and vegetables holds many benefits including a more active lifestyle working your plot or garden, saving money on groceries; as well as having fresh produce grown organically, which is more flavoursome and packed with nutrients as opposed to chemicals.

If timed correctly and in the right growing conditions, we can grow crops practically all year round and if stored correctly - always have a supply until the next yield is ready for harvest.

Fruit and vegetable plants can be grown wherever you have the space from pots on a balcony, terrace or patio to an allotment plot or field as well as under cover in a polytunnel or greenhouse.
