Grow Fruit

Author(s): Alan Buckingham

Fruit Trees

There are many reasons why it's worth growing your own fruit and nuts- freshness, flavour, good health, and choice are all part of the equation, but so too are concerns about the industrialization of commercial food production and the feeling that we want to know more about where our food comes from, how it is grown, and what is done to it before it reaches us. That, and the fact that many are rediscovering a very simple truth- it is not only delicious, but also extraordinarily satisfying, to eat food we have grown ourselves. The new paperback edition of Grow Fruitshows that it's easy to grow your own, no matter how little room you have.
