Jane's Delicious Garden: An Organic Guide to Growing Your Own Food

Product Information

If you are coming from Rachel’s from the Ponds Farmhouse, welcome to my home and garden where we are serving up an incredible menu for a garden party theme. I love a good recipe that uses fresh ingredients, looks pretty and takes little effort to make. Wait until you try this one! Autumn Apple and Pecan Salad

Chris shares insights into tomato blight, and how to bring a pop of autumn colour into your planting schemes. And from the postbag, Anton discusses harvesting carrots and parsnips and autumn seed sowing. It was too harsh saying we are unhygienic. Our shop is absolutely super clean and I make sure to keep the quality to a high standard. At the forefront of A Delicious Garden is the fair treatment of artists; nourishing their artistic practice, supporting creative development and valuing their time. This means inspectors have deemed that urgent (0) or major (1) improvement is necessary and told staff how to go about it. Only where inspectors find an imminent risk to health - ie food is unsafe to eat - will a business face some kind prohibition on trading. While I lean towards a garden-style approach to decorating and entertaining, today’s menu was created with a fete champetre theme in mind.Our first event ‘The Perfect Kitchen Garden’ was held on the 9 th and 10 th February and was a huge success! The workshop was perfect for gardening beginners or people looking to make the most out of their veg patch learning how to grow at home – no matter the size of your space! Chris and Fiona chat about growing potatoes for a Christmas crop and planting for the hunger gap in early spring. And discuss protecting your soil over autumn and winter with green manures. The Archive in Leeds hosts an exhibition of work by early career artists, including BA Fine Art alumni from the University of Leeds. This is why, alongside the exhibition and launch event, we are doing an artist-led workshopon 16 April, and a collaborative event with the Queer Art Collective Double Feature on the 14 th.

When putting these workshops together we couldn’t think of anyone better to join us than Mark Diacono! Local to THE PIG-at Combe and with over two decades of experience pioneering Kitchen Gardening across the generations with River Cottage and Otter Farm, Mark brings a wealth of knowledge to share alongside our own PIG expertise. Aasif Davidson, another BA Fine Art Graduate from 2022, will be taking part in the exhibition launch night. Aasif said: In this month’s podcast, Fiona chats to environmentalist Jane Davidson – our new Vice President - about the impact of climate change on her life and her gardening. Weren’t those tables so gorgeous? I love how each of us did something completely different for an outdoor garden party.The institution has had its fill – we are left fighting for the scraps. The Delicious Garden has been plundered, and its fruits left to rot. This is the dessert course of the unfinished and the unseen; a fitting end to the banquet. Welcome to a night of the indigestible, the unsavoury, and the bittersweet.” Our ‘grow your own’ workshops are perfect for aspiring gardeners and the more green-fingered among us. You can expect tips, our seeds of knowledge from over the years of sowing, growing, and cooking across the litter and getting hands-on experimenting with forgotten foods and exploring new ways to grow. In a fascinating discussion for our September Organic Gardening Podcast, the former Welsh Government minister shares her organic gardening trials and triumphs in North Pembrokeshire, and the importance of the Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act, which she spearheaded.
