The Cook's Garden by Lynda Brown
Over the past 15 years, Lynda Brown has experimented with a great variety of crops and ways of growing them organically. As in her appearances on BBC TV's "Gardener's World", she now provides her practical tips of planting, feeding and harvesting. Concentrating on growing things that are not easy to buy, the book is divided seasonally to include leafy spring vegetables, summer courgettes, garlic and tomatoes, autumnal Swiss chard and endives, and for winter, parsnips, leeds and cabbage. Interspersed with dozens of recipe ideas which enhance that flavour and freshness of the produce, whether in a dish of broccoli with pasta or a salad of celeriac and red peppers.
