THE EDIBLE COUNTRY GARDEN - by Sara Johnson
THE EDIBLE COUNTRY GARDENby Sara Johnson
With the recent 'grow your own' resurgence and long waiting lists for allotments, I have embarked on a redesign of my own garden to include more productive planting.
My existing vegetable plot is situated at the end of the garden with espaliered fruit trees as a dividing screen.
However, I would now like to grow more soft fruit as well as asparagus. Initially, I was reluctant to give up any more space to growing food, but I've now resolved to grow this produce in a decorative way, incorporating it into the existing aesthetic style of a modern country garden.
Watch this blog to see how the project progresses.
If you need help with ideas for your own garden, you can contact me on 01508 483992 or email info@sara-johnson.co.uk
