Книга: Garden Farming

The joy of really fresh, home-grown food seduces many of us. Hugh and Claire Lanham have run various miniature smallholdings for more than thirty years?some in gardens and others on allotments. They are not self-sufficient or truly organic, but they do produce a great deal of very good meat and vegetables that often taste much better than the produce sold in supermarkets. Moreover, their ethos is that food production must not take over your life or be so demanding as to spoil the fun. This practical guide explains how they do it, proving essential reading for all those who want to engage in substantial domestic food production but who stop short of embracing the very demanding lifestyle choice of self-sufficiency.
