Protected Crop Growing

There is no better feeling than eating something you have grown yourself. This is especially true for crops like tomatoes which require constant care to get them from seed to plate. There can be a great feeling of accomplishment. This guide is designed to give people the confidence to have a go at growing themselves. If you only have a sunny window you can try mixed leaves or strawberries in a pot. If you have a greenhouse we hope we can answer some of your questions or encourage you to try a few plants of something new this summer.
