It’s a fresh department in the newly re-branded, Organic Gardening Magazine – and I write it.

Pick up the Feb/Mar issue of Organic Gardening, on newsstands now. The new format is just a little over-sized and sexy in a serious, European garden mag kind of way. Gorgeous photographs accompany the stories and I love, love, love the yummy new food features. Still filled with solid organic principles and practical down-to-earth instruction, the OG of our parents – and grandparents – remains alive and well.
You’re in for a delicious surprise.
