This Product is Available Now.

Supplied as hardback 80 pages, slightly smaller than A4.

This is an excellent book packed with ideas of activities to get your children gardening – infact many of the suggestions have been used in our children’s gardening days held here. 

The book is bright and colourful with easy step by step instructions and is suitable regardless of the amount of space you have.  It helps to teach them about growing their own produce as well as pretty flowers and herbs.  It has some lovely imaginative ideas to really help the children enjoy what they are doing.

Highly recommended.
