In this personal gardening journey, Liz Zorab explores seasonal harvests and how the vegetable garden sits within the wider context of the gardening landscape--including weather, microclimates, water cycles, light levels, seasons and the gardener's personal tastes. Liz provides hundreds of practical tips, including how-to guides, observations and inspiration for both the beginner and practiced gardener alike. This book starts in the autumn, when harvesting is at its peak. Most of the fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers highlighted are grouped according to when we enjoy them most.
