As part of TW Lit Fest 2025!
The first book from amateur gardener and viral sensation Martha Swales, this is a beginner's guide that shows how fun and easy it can be to grow your own slice of nature.
With chapters on veg, fruit, herbs, flowers and wildlife, this book brings together over 40 of Martha's favourite projects to make the most of your garden, patio or balcony (plus recipes for how to cook with your produce, too!):
- Grow garlic greens on your windowsill (and use them to make tasty garlic flatbreads)
- Fill your garden with wild strawberries
- Build a pond to bring wildlife to your garden
- Make a bulb lasagne for a changing display of flowers throughout spring
Offering a fresh alternative to the over-complicated gardening books on the market, this book is perfect for urban readers in their 30's and 40's and shows just how fun gardening can be when you Give it a Grow.
Martha Swales is an avid urban gardener from London who has been growing her own produce for over twelve years. A TV producer and director specialising in food, she regularly shares her cooking and cultivating tips on social media with millions of people around the world. She shares her little London garden with her housemate Charlie and their rescue cat Mo. Give it a Grow is her first book.
