SELF- SUFFICIENT GARDENS
Transform a garden space into a self-sufficient haven . Embrace the ‘ grow-your-own ’ trend and savour the satisfaction of installing a veg patch and harvesting the produce . For urban spaces , utilise every inch to grow vegetables and think outside the ( veg !) box to maximise your garden ’ s potential with raised beds or window boxes . Plant cutting gardens bursting with vibrant blooms to enrich the space and supply cuttings all year round while supporting local pollinators . Start composting to turn kitchen waste into rich , nutrient-dense soil and use it to nourish the garden , and collect rainwater to hydrate the garden , ensuring sustainability and resilience in the face of changing climates .
