Product Description
Product Description
Over the course of a year, Dominic Murphy helped his local school create a beautiful and productive garden that supplied the kitchen with vegetables and the children with flowers to take home. Starting out with a battered polytunnel and two patches of waterlogged clay, Dominic records the setbacks and small triumphs he encountered as he got the gardening club off the ground. The result is a unique and practical guide to getting your garden to fruit and flower before the school holidays. This timely book will inspire young people to get gardening whether at home or at school, with their parents, teachers, or both. Together with suggestions for outdoor-related activities and projects to bring gardening into the classroom, it may even get children to eat the vegetables that they've grown!
