Mark's Veg Plot

http://marksvegplot.blogspot.com/

This blog is dedicated to the concept of the kitchen garden: on my small domestic urban plot in southern England I grow food that is destined for the plate. I grow what we like to eat. There are no Food Miles to worry about; no harmful substances; just lots of enjoyment! As well as gardening, my blog covers matters of general "foodiness" - ingredients, recipes, utensils, etc. If you enjoy reading this blog, please tell your friends! NB: To see pictures in larger size, just double-click them.
