Good news then that Lucy Start - aka She Grows Veg - is here to turn this stereotype upside down. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs Lucy showcases in this truly innovative book, vegetable gardening doesn't always require outdoor space - let alone a significant patch of land. Through clever uses of space and containers, understanding of growing conditions and a unique, design-led approach, Lucy showcases how anyone can grow pretty much anything in their back garden, courtyard, balcony or kitchen, bringing every ounce of happiness that the great outdoors can provide with her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book begins with an explanation of her approach to edible gardening, followed by helpful how-tos for novice gardeners, explanations of planting seasons, and a list of the most practical herbs and vegetables to grow. Next, Lucy walks us through 20 edible gardening projects, from living vegetable walls that will thrive in even the shadiest corner, to hydroponics basics (an indoor growing technique that uses water instead of soil; Selfridges, Lakeland, Conran Shop, Ikea and Amazon all sell kits, among many others), from how to turn a set of shelves into a stunning indoor edible garden to indoor squash arches and home grown spices that have all the decorative style and visual interest of ornamental house plants. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs more and more people become aware and concerned about provenance, and the considerable financial, environmental and health benefits of producing their own food, the need for a book that dispels the typical gardening stereotypes has developed; with her young, engaged audience, off-piste approach and design credentials, Lucy is blazing a trail for new-wave gardening with a mantra of anything is possible, for anyone.","brand":"Hardie Grant Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45049345573015,"sku":"9781784883928","price":1541.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781784883928.webp?v=1769224709","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/get-up-and-grow-9781784883928","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
