RHS Grow Your Own: For Kids by Chris Collins
Grow Your Own for Kids! shows budding gardeners how to grow the tastiest and best fruit and vegetables alongside some of their favorite owers. As the desire for outside living, fresh food and healthy activity continues to build, this inspiring book can be enjoyed by children alongside parents, grandparents and friends of all ages.
Thirty easy-to-follow step-by-step projects show how to sow and grow key vegetables including tomatoes, eggplants and pumpkins, child-friendly fruits such as strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, and other plants such as sun owers. Kids will also learn how to keep their plants healthy, how to encourage birds and insects into the garden, and how to make a scarecrow.
In addition to providing invaluable advice so kids can grow their own fruit and vegetables, there is fun scientific information as well as simple recipes for using the produce they grow.
