Salad leaves can flourish in a range of settings – whether on a windowsill, in your garden or on the allotment. This compendium of practical methods will inspire you to grow a wide variety of salads throughout the year, including lettuce, spinach, cabbage, beets, endives and chicories. Beautifully designed with colour photos throughout, Grow Organic Salad Leaves and Greens includes detailed information on how to grow micro-leaves using organic and permaculture principles, enabling you to enjoy fresh salad while also lowering your carbon footprint.

Written by the guru of no-dig, Charles Dowding provides an overview of all you need to grow productive, healthy and tasty salads. He shares vital knowledge and gardening tips, from advice on indoor propagation to coping with slugs and other pests. The guide also includes delicious and imaginative recipes by Stephanie Hafferty, exploiting the fantastic flavours, colour and vitality of home-grown salad leaves.
