I've never felt so compelled to get into my garden. It was a true joy to read ― Yotam OttolenghiYou don't have to be naturally green fingered to love this book. It's friendly, easy to read and even easier to understand. But most of all it will make you want to get into the garden ― Nadiya HussainMartha's love and knowledge of food stems from her passion for gardening. From delicate edible flowers to robust hearty root vegetables, this book will guide and inspire you to grow your own and have some fun on the way ― Michel RouxIf there was ever a book to inspire people to grow their own food, this is it. Martha's 'just crack on' approach, and the charming story of her own love affair with her veg plot, is by turns empowering, cajoling and irresistibly enticing. In the end you just can't say no. And why would you? Everything this book is celebrating just makes life better - for you and the world around you ― Hugh Fearnley-WhittingstallHow to grow it, how to eat it - this is my kind of book! ― Jasmine HemsleyI especially love where Martha describes how we can all be gardeners without having gardens. Her approach to gardening is fun, natural and very heartfelt in this book. But I must say: Martha's enthusiasm towards gardening and connectivity to nature is a bug (pardon the pun) she picked up from her mother, that is evident in every page of this book ― Rekha Mistry, Head Gardener, Presenter, AuthorMartha has been inspiring me for years with her clever, creative and super practical ideas and now she's gathered them into one beautiful and practical guide.
