I have an eclectic view of gardening: I'll try anything (indoors or out), I'll grow
anything, and I don't mind mixing vegetables and flowering plants. But I do avoid chemical fertilisers and pesticides.
Like most gardeners in the UK, I'm a self-taught amateur with an interest in growing at least some of our own household food. In fact, a few years ago - when the pictures on this page were taken - I nearly managed to achieve self-sufficiency in most staple crops such as potatoes, root vegetables, salads (over about 7 months), onions and greens.
