@charles_dowding: So excited to finally hold my new book Grow Together in my hands 🌱 It arrived through the letterbox this morning. This book is all about growing more food in the same space, using companion planting, inter-sowing and overlapping crops. I’ve been practising this for many years, and it’s about getting the timings right – making the most of the end of one crop while the next one is just beginning. A simple example is carrots followed by Brussels sprouts. Sow carrots in late March, then in mid-June thin a few and plant in your Brussels. Keep the mesh on, harvest carrots through July, and you’ll have strong Brussels ready for winter. Grow Together is published by Dorling Kindersley. Pre-order your copy now – release date 9th April. 160 pages, fully illustrated. Photos by Jason Ingram and myself. #growtogether #growyourownfood🌱 #nodig #companionplanting #intercropping @DK Books
