It’s been a long time in gestation but I’m excited to be writing the first post for ‘Get Growing‘ – a site dedicated to growing your own food. The aim is to provide inspiration and information to encourage more of us to start producing and eating things we’ve grown ourselves.
From small acorns…There are lots of reasons why I wanted to start writing this – reasons that will be covered in future posts – but a particular motivation for starting now is that I’m about to begin a new garden. I’ve grown a few radishes as a kid and had a few lettuces in the back garden over the years, but I’ve never seriously spent time tending a garden and growing a good proportion of my own food.
Why am I starting to garden now? Where is the garden? What will be on this website? All questions to be answered over forthcoming posts.
For now it’s ‘time to get growing’…
