Schillinger, Naomi,
Veg street : grow your own community / Naomi Schillinger. - 207 pages : colour illustrations ; 25 cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
A few years ago, Naomi Schillinger got together with her neighbours to start a community gardening scheme. Today, they live in a street in which no less than 100 residents have turned their front gardens over to growing their own fruit and veg: lettuces, leeks and beetroot in raised beds, teepees billowing with sweet peas and runner beans, rhubarb by the door. Whether you live in a rented flat with a window box, a house with a front garden if you have access to a bit of pavement or decide to reclaim some unloved or forgotten corner there will be ideas in this book which will encourage you to have a go at growing your own fruit and veg (and flowers) throughout the year; and, in so doing, create your own mini Eden.
