Grow Cook Eat - Season 1

Grow Cook Eat is a new series about how you can grow your own food: you can grow vegetables and fruit in a very small garden, or even in containers on an apartment balcony, you don't need half an acre or a poly tunnel to do it. Each programme focuses on a particular vegetable and takes us through the entire process, from sowing the seed, to harvesting and to cooking. This is a practical series, aimed at people with little or no knowledge, but who like the idea of being able to grow at least something themselves. As well as the step-by-step guides to growing vegetables, there are features on building raised beds, making a compost heap and improving soil fertility. Each programme ends with a recipe using the featured vegetable and cooked by one of our two chefs featured in the series.
