In this beautifully crafted and insightful guide, Perrine and Charles Hervé-Gruyer’s third instalment, is as engaging as the first. While the book serves as a practical toolkit for those interested in microfarming, its lessons are relevant to anyone looking to deepen their connection with sustainable living by providing food for the family and perhaps the local community.

Maddy Harland, PM‘s editor, gives a tour of her small, no dig garden, on a woodland edge. Filmed in August, Maddy explains how her raised veggies beds produce a modest amount of food for most of the year plus culinary herbs and apples and gooseberries. There are plenty of flowers mixed in with the veg, so much so that there are very few pests.
