The follow up to the Sunday Times bestselling Clean and Green and Green Living Made Easy, former Great British Bake Off winner Nancy Birtwhistle's third book is a guide to gardening and growing at home, all with a sustainable, eco-friendly outlook and suffused with the author's customary passion, knowledge, and warmth. Whether you have a sprawling garden, a modest patch of grass or just a spare windowsill, The Green Gardening Handbook will help you make the most of your space, and what it can grow.

The book is split into the four seasons and provides information on everything from when to plant potatoes, what sort of fertiliser to use and the plethora of foods that can be grown from tiny pots in your kitchen. It features seasonal recipes and guides to storing and preserving, tips for getting kids involved and excited about where food comes from and provides a blueprint for embracing the joy of growing and eating from your own garden - and reducing your carbon footprint in the process.

Packed with advice on composting, clothing and basic equipment, and demonstrating the mental and physical benefits of gardening, The Green Gardening Handbook is underlined by Nancy's belief that once we understand the seasons we can live a healthier lifestyle that in turn will ensure our planet stays healthy too.
