Chas Griffin gets down and mucky in the vegetable plot to enthuse and share with anyone who doesn't know a garden knife from a garden fork. With so many vegetable books on the market this one is refreshingly different - the antidote to gardening books. Chas's book will be like a door opening and the clouds parting, a revelation taking you along with his gusto and enthusiasm out your back door into your garden because, quite frankly, growing veg is easy and any fool can do it, therefore so can you. |
In 1982 Chas Griffin and his family left the security of suburbia and a safe teaching job to grow garlic in Wales. He wrote about his experiences in two funny books that shared with the reader how they learned lambing, marketing, ploughing and hay-making. They sold in tens of thousands and earned the title Waterstones Paperback of the Year. His writing style has been likened to “a Bill Bryson down on the farm.” |
