Planting The First Seed
The Country Smallholder
|Spring 2023
Could you be involved in the Wildlife Trusts recently launched scheme?
-
You can't mention gardening anywhere without half a dozen people telling you they'd love to grow things, too.
But then you'll hear they don't have the space, the time, or the knowledge. These are real barriers. If you're already a keen grower, cast your mind back to your early days. Even if you had space, time and all the books in the world, just a quiet word or a bit of companionship probably made all the difference to your confidence.
Fortunately, a new scheme by The Wildlife Trusts is helping people all over the UK to take their first steps in growing herbs, vegetables and fruit.
