If you have ever dreamed about growing and cooking your own food, living the good life and getting close to nature, then this is the book for you! Gardening and natural history enthusiast Joe Hashman (alias 'Dirty Nails' of the Blackmore Vale Magazine) serves up another absorbing helping of practical tips, advice, observations and recipes from his vegetable plot and kitchen. In this week-by-week account of the fruit and vegetable gardener's year, you are invited to join Joe on the plot and get stuck in to the important jobs of the day. The finer points of crop husbandry are beautifully and clearly presented using simple step-by-step colour photographs.

A wealth of easy to follow but unusual recipes will keep the chef in you busy and satisfied too! REVIEWS: 'This is more than a informational gardening book. The information is clearly there but it is also presented in an amusing and truly inspirational style. Top this off with excellent photography which is practical as well as looking good.' www.gardenaction.co.uk. 'Jam-packed with handy hints.' www.miss-thrifty.co.uk. 'Will keep you and your family inspired and motivated to grow your own forever.' www.mygeenlifestyle.co.uk. 'An absolute delight...Beautifully laid out, it comprises a week-by-week account of the vegetable and fruit gardener's year, clearly presented with absorbing practical tips, advice, recipes and subtle observations on the changing seasons.' Grow it! 'This book makes you want to jump out of bed on a freezing cold Sunday morning, put your wellies on and head straight down for the garden. It's a remarkable, heart warming account of a year in a Dorset vegetable garden. The book is well balanced with practical advice on a week-by-week basis which mixes with personal humour and observations of Dorset's wildlife. It provides an explanation of why so many of us cherish Dorset - the smell of the cold countryside, the buzz of those hot afternoons and those feelings which hit you in the stomach and make you realise we are lucky to live in Dorset.' Emma Brawn, Greenwood Tree Project Officer, DWT AUTHOR BIOG: Joe's first book, How to Grow Your Own Food, was published by How To Books in 2007 and received widespread critical acclaim. His down-to-earth style and quirky tales from the garden continued with the release of A Vegetable Gardener's Year (2008). This latest volume stands alone as a manual for both the first time grower or seasoned expert, and perfectly complements his earlier titles in the ongoing quest for success and satisfaction on the plot. Writing as 'Dirty Nails', Joe's popular weekly columns have been enjoyed by the readers of the Dorset-based Blackmore Vale Magazine since 2004. He now contributes to newspapers across England and Wales on a regular basis. CONTENTS: CONTENTS Every week, by calendar month - ON THE PLOT JOBS TO DO EACH WEEK VEG ON THE MENU.
