MORE FOOD, LESS SPACE
AS EARTH GARDEN turns 50 and I turn 51, my thoughts turn to one of the biggest changes I have seen in gardening in Australia over the last 50 years, which has been the shift to very intensive gardening in whatever tiny spaces are available, whether that’s a courtyard, along the driveway, or pots on the balcony of the shared rental house.
The days of the cheap bush block and the quarter-acre backyard are pretty much over, and making the most of every inch of garden space is the new gardening challenge. In this spirit I asked myself the question: Can I get more goodies from. There is more to vegies than hitherto suspected and almost every vegie in the garden will yield up extra edible goodness.
