One of the greatest pleasures of working in the garden is the ability to produce crops of fresh, tasty fruit and vegetables. The inclusion of a herb patch not only adds extra flavour to your cooking, but can also be used for medical and cosmetic purposes. There is something particularly satisfying about serving up healthy, flavoursome food that was growing outside only a few moments or hours before.

In this section, ypu'll find a range of guides to help you with every stage of planning a fruit, vegetable or herb garden; from choosing the site and selecting the crops, to harvesting and storing the final product.
