How can I grow my own food?

Growing your own vegetables, fruit or herbs isn’t only good for the environment but you could save money too.

 

Here are a few tips on how you can grow your own food:

  • You can grow several items in small planting pots or bags. 
  • You could start by growing your own herbs, such as mint and basil.
  • If you don’t have a garden, you can also investigate available allotment plots near your home where you can grow your own items. 
  • Choose environmentally friendly fertiliser and pest control options, such as using egg shells or seaweed to deter slugs.
