Charles Dowding says:
If you dream of growing your own fruit and vegetables but don’t like digging and weeding. My no dig children’s gardening book is for you. Whether you have a garden, a balcony, or a window box, my no-dig method is the perfect way to create a family garden together.

Beautiful and charismatic illustrations by Kristyna Litten are on every page. They bring the possibilities and joy of gardening to life, before you even begin.

I explain how healthy soil will lead to healthy plants and will grow more of the amazing creatures that live in soil. The book tells you about the magic of compost, the amazing power of seeds. And how to grow flowers that bring in more wildlife.

There are step-by-step activities and a planting chart to show you how you can grow food for your dinner table no matter the season. The perfect book for any budding young gardener.
