We are Joanne and Ashley. We live in the beautiful Lake District and are the lucky owners of a private allotment which has absolutely changed our lives.  After a health condition that was aggravated by the use of e-numbers, additives and preservatives etc. in our foods we had to look at how to live & cook without these.  This has been a long, slow process but we think we may have it cracked!

 

Our goal is to provide growing advice tailored to your needs, whether you are a beginner or an experienced grower.

We offer growing advice, food storage ideas, recipes and a wide range of plants and seeds, including heirloom and rare varieties, to help you start your own edible garden. 

​

We want to empower you to grow your own food and reduce your reliance on industrial agriculture and Ultra Proceed Foods.
